At the end, it is good to mention some Hadiths about reciting Qur’an:
1. Importance of reciting Qur’an
The Messenger of God (prayers of God be upon him and his family) has said,
- “These hearts - just like iron - become rusted, and the way to remove this (the way to clean the rust from the hearts) is through the recitation of the Qur’an.”
- “Nothing is harder for Satan to bear than a person who recites the Qur’an by looking at the pages (of the Qur’an).”
- “Brighten up your houses through the recitation of the Qur’an, and do not make them (your homes) like graves, similar to what the Jews and Christians have done (by not performing the prayers and worship of God in their house and limiting this to the Synagogues and Churches).”
- “Surely the recitation of the Qur’an is an atonement for the sins, a covering (protection) from the Hell Fire, and a safety from the punishment. Mercy will descend upon the reciter, the Angels will seek forgiveness for him, Heaven will long for that person, and his Master (God) will be pleased with him.”
Imam Ali (as) has said,
- “The house in which the Qur’an is recited and God, The Noble and Grand, is remembered will receive numerous Divine blessings (barakah), the Angels will be present, and the Satans will be distanced from there. In addition, that house will shimmer for the people of the sky, just like the stars shimmer for the people on the Earth.”
Imam Sadiq (as) has said,
- “One who recites the Qur’an will be free from need (of everyone), and thereafter will not be in need of anything. But as for the one (who does not recite the Qur’an), nothing at all will make him needless (and he will always be in need of others).”
- “One who recites the Qur’an and is a believing youth, the Qur’an becomes mixed with his flesh and blood, and God - The Noble and Great - will place him with the noble, devoted Angels. In addition, the Qur’an will act as a barrier between him and the Hell Fire) on the Day of Judgment.”
