Learn to read Qur’an with tajweed
“Verily, We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur’an in order that you may understand”
61
It is not permissible for anyone to deliberately change any letter of it when he is able to pronounce
it correctly. This is a kind of mistake, which is a sin.
Allah states in the Qur’an: “And recite the Qur’an with measure”.
62
In the commentary of the above ayat, Ali radiallahu anhu explains that tarteel means to recite the
letters with Tajweed.
It has been narrated in a hadith: “Allah desires that the Qur’an be recited in the manner it was
revealed i.e. with tajweed.
Ayesha radiallahu anha has said that the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu alaihe wasallam said:
“One who is skilled in the Qur’an is associated with the noble, upright recording angels, and he who
falters when reciting (because he is not fluent with it and does not remember it well) and it is difficult
for him will have a double reward (one for the recital and other for enduring difficulty).”
63
Recite the Quran every day
Abu Umamah Radiallahu ‘anhu narrated that he heard the Prophet Sallallahu ‘alaihe wasallam
saying: “ Read the Qur’an (regularly) for it will act as an intercessor for its readers on the Day of
Resurrection.”
64
Abidah al Mulayhi radiallahu anhu reported the Messenger of Allah as saying: “O People of the
Qur’an, do not make the Qur’an your pillow. But, recite it during the night and the day, as it deserves
to be recited. Diffuse it and read it with interest and cheer. Think over it that you may prosper. Do not
seek to get reward for it in this world. You will get great reward for it from Allah.
