The effects of reciting the Quran-1

The month of Ramadan is a month in which the whole reality of the Quran was descended to the Prophet of Islam in the night of Qadr. There are many benefits, material and spiritual for reciting this book.

So let’s look at some of them.

Imam sadiq peace be upon him said: The Quran is the treaty and covenant of Allah with His creation, so it is appropriate for every Muslim to look at his treaty and recite every day fifty verses.

The holy Prophet of Islam said: The superiority of the Quran over other words is like the superiority of Allah over His servants.

Allah has descended this book in a way that is sufficient for the guidance of mankind till the Day of Judgment.

Of course it must be noted that the holy Prophet of Islam before his departure delivered a sermon which is narrated by both Shia and Sunni schools of thought. The holy Prophet said:

I leave among you two precious things, the book of Allah and my progeny. You will never go astray after me as long as you grasp them. These two never get separated from each other till the day that they enter on me at the Lake-fount (a spring in Paradise).

So we must not be away from the main and basic interpreters of the holy Quran i.e. Imam Ali, Lady Fatimah, and their infallible sons (peace be upon them all).

Nowadays is a time in which different devils try to deviate mankind by their various temptations. The holy Prophet of Islam prescribed a useful solution in those times. He said:

When different tests or seditions encounter you which are like the parts of the dark night, so I advise you (to refer) to the Quran.

In the similar way, the holy Quran describes itself in chapter Ibrahim, verse1:

الَر كِتَابٌ أَنزَلْنَاهُ إِلَيْكَ لِتُخْرِجَ النَّاسَ مِنَ الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّورِ بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِمْ إِلَى صِرَاطِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَمِيدِ

“Aliflaamra. We have sent down to you (this book) in order that you bring mankind from darkness to the light by the permission of your lord, to the path of the almighty, the praised.”

It is good for us to recites the holy Quran in our house because according to the Narrations:

-It causes the blessings of Allah to be increased in the house.

– It causes the angels to be present in our houses.

– It causes the devils to run away from our house.

-The houses in which the Quran is recited, they shine for the inhabitants of the heaven just like the shining of the stars for the inhabitants of the earth.

Reciting the holy Quran is a kind of remembrance of Allah and according to the holy Quran itself in chapter Raad verse 28, by the remembrance of Allah the hearts find peace. So for those who are suffering from different stresses and they are looking for a safe place in order to find tranquility, they can recite the holy Quran.

To be continued.
