Learning to read the Quran

Learning to read the Holy Quran is a process that not only opens the door to knowledge but also washes away the impurities of the heart. While reciting this blessed book, one feels as if Allah Almighty is talking to him. Allah says:

(Surah Al-Qamar: 17)”وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍ”

That is, “And surely We have made the Qur’an easy for admonition, so is there anyone who receives admonition?”

But the question is, do we take the time to understand this advice? Are we so engrossed in our busyness that we ignore our hereafter?

Reading and understanding the Qur’an creates fear and love for Allah Ta’ala in the human heart. The Prophet (PBUH) said:

“خیرکم من تعلم القرآن و علمه” 

“The best among you is the one who learns the Quran and teaches it to others.”

But have we ever thought about what our shortcomings are in this blessed practice? Have we given time to our children to learn the Quran? Have we tried to learn this great blessing ourselves? Perhaps our hearts have become so engrossed in the glitter of this world that we have not realized our real responsibilities.

The greatest benefit of reading the Qur’an is that it softens the hardness of the heart and brings out the hidden evils in a person so that he can correct them. Allah Almighty says:

(Surah Al-Nur: 21) “يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَتَّبِعُوا خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ” 

That is, “O you who believe! Do not follow the footsteps of Satan.”

The Qur’an saves us from the path of Satan and guides us to the path of Allah. When a person makes the Qur’an a part of his life, the darkness of his heart is removed and he realizes his shortcomings. This is the moment when a person turns to Allah Almighty and bows humbly before his Lord.

Tafsir: Understanding of the Qur’an and the path of guidance

Studying Tafsir to understand the Holy Qur’an is a great process that fills the heart and mind with spirituality. Allah Ta’ala revealed the Qur’an not only for recitation, but the treasure of guidance is hidden in its every word and every command. Allah Almighty says:

(Surah Muhammad: 24)”أَفَلَا يَتَدَبَّرُونَ الْقُرْآنَ أَمْ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبٍ أَقْفَالُهَا” 

That is, “Do they not meditate on the Qur’an or do they have locks on their hearts?”

Have we ever considered it to shake our soul? Aren’t there such negligences in our lives that are keeping us away from the real truth and message of the Qur’an? The study of Tafsir gives a person the opportunity to understand the wisdom and intentions of Allah Almighty behind the Qur’an. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 

“The best of you is the one who learns and teaches the Qur’an.” (Bukhari) But are we really making this process a part of our life? Perhaps we are mastering the external knowledge, but neglect to accept the message of the Qur’an from the heart. Perhaps we have forgotten that the understanding of the words of Allah Ta’ala is the food of our soul, and from it comes the path of peace and guidance in our lives.

The study of Tafsir purifies a person’s heart and makes him realize the evils within him. Quranic verses like:

(Surah Al-Ra’d: 11)”إِنَّ اللَّـهَ لَا يُغَيِّرُ مَا بِقَوْمٍ حَتَّىٰ يُغَيِّرُوا مَا بِأَنفُسِهِمْ” 

That is, “Indeed, Allah Ta’ala does not change the condition of a nation until they themselves change their condition”,

we should ask, have we ever looked inside ourselves? Understanding the Qur’an teaches us that change begins within us, and when we accept the Qur’an wholeheartedly, its light guides us out of darkness and onto the bright path of guidance.

Translation: Understanding the message of the Qur’an

Reading the translation of the Qur’an is actually an attempt to understand the words of Allah Ta’ala in one’s own language. It is a book that is a treasure of guidance for every human being, and when we read it in our own language, it sinks deep into our hearts. Allah Ta’ala says: 

“And We have made the Qur’an easy for admonition, so is there anyone who accepts admonition?” 

(Surah Al-Qamar: 17).

When a person reads the Qur’an in his own language, he feels the love of Allah Ta’ala, His mercy and His message in every word. It makes us aware of every mistake, every sin, and every disobedience and guides us to the straight path.

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 

“The best of you is he who learns the Qur’an and others Teach”.

 Translation of the Qur’an gives us the opportunity to understand this word and adapt our actions accordingly. When we read the translation, we get a sense of what things Allah Ta’ala has prevented us from and what things He has ordered us to do. It gives us an opportunity to account for our actions and recognize our faults. We feel shame and regret in our hearts that we may have neglected these commandments in our lives, but now it can be a means to get us back on the right path. 

Translation The act of reading the Quran is a means of bringing the heart closer to Allah Ta’ala and gaining awareness of the evils within. It reminds us what kind of character and action Allah wants from us. When we read the words of Allah Ta’ala in our own language, we realize how much neglect and carelessness we have. Through this process, we purify our hearts and find a sense of bowing before our Lord.

Our life in the light of hadith

When we study hadith, we find that it is not just a collection of words but it is a mirror of our Prophet Muhammad’s life. There is a hidden message in every hadith, which shows us the way to improve our lives. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:

“من لا يؤثّر في الآخرين ليس له من الإيمان شيء” 

(He who does not influence others, has no faith).

Understanding this hadith makes us realize that the purpose of our life is not only limited to ourselves, but we should also be kind to the people around us. Have we ever thought about how many people’s hearts we hurt in our daily lives? We should examine our habits and attitudes so that we can improve ourselves.

Understanding the literature of hadith and its importance is an important part of our faith. When we take seriously the hadiths of the Holy Prophet, we actually fill our hearts with the light of light. Allah Almighty says in the Qur’an:

“وَإِن كُنتُم فِي رَيْبٍ مِّمَّا نَزَّلْنَا عَلَى عَبْدِنَا فَأْتُوا بِسُورَةٍ مِّن مِّثْلِهِ”

(Surah, al-Baqarah: 23).

This verse reminds us that we should accept the words of the Quran and Hadith with our hearts and souls so that we can be blessed with this knowledge. Have we ever considered how much we shape our lives in the light of this knowledge? This question forces us to examine our own selfishness and inattention.

Last but not least, we should adopt the message of hadiths in our daily life. Prophetic hadith 

Comes in:

“إنما بعثت لأتمم صالح الأخلاق” 

(I have been sent so that I may perfect the best conduct).

By understanding this, we should think whether we are improving our morals. Are we treating those around us with love, compassion and respect? If we do not adopt these things in our life, we will never achieve real success. We must face our shortcomings, and begin this correction today.

Islamic beliefs

Islamic beliefs are the truths buried deep in our soul that make us realize the true purpose of life. Belief in Allah Ta’ala and the concept of His Oneness leads us to the fact that we are not just made for this world but the purpose of our life is the pleasure of Allah Ta’ala and the success of the Hereafter. It is stated in the Quran:

“إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَرْتَابُوا وَجَاهَدُوا بِأَمْوَالِهِمْ 

(Sura, Hujarat: 15) وَأَنفُسِهِمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الصَّادِقُونَ” 

That is, “The believers are those who believe in Allah Ta’ala and His Messenger and never doubt and strive in the way of Allah Ta’ala with their wealth and lives. Those are the true people.”

Can we ask ourselves whether we are really following the commandments of Allah Ta’ala and His Messenger in our lives?

Another important aspect of Islamic beliefs is that we adopt the good deeds of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and follow them in our morals and actions. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Bani al-Islam ali khums” means “Islam is based on five pillars.”Kalma Tayyaba Prayer, Fasting, Zakat and Hajj” There are the basic bricks of our faith, but these bricks can only be strong when they are built with sincerity, love and faith. Have we ever thought that by neglecting the observance of prayer, delay in paying zakat and postponing Hajj, we are weakening the foundation of our faith? Realizing this leads us to end our carelessness.

Last but not least, Islamic beliefs make us realize the impermanence of this world and the reality of the hereafter. In the Holy Qur’an, Almighty says:

“وَمَا هَذِهِ الْحَيَاةُ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا لَهْوٌ وَلَعِبٌ ۖ وَإِنَّ الدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ لَهِيَ الْحَيَوَانُ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ” (سورۃ، العنكبوت: 64) 

That is, “This worldly life is only a game, and the real life is the Hereafter if only people know.”

We often have hidden greed and worldly attachment that takes us away from the true state of faith. We should examine our lives in the light of Islamic beliefs, so that we can reform ourselves and be diligent in preparing for the Hereafter.

Online courses and webinars

In today’s age, where time constraints and busy schedules have scattered our lives, online courses and webinars are a beacon of light that can guide us back to the path of religion. How easily we make time for worldly knowledge, but have we ever thought that we need to make the same amount of time for knowing the words of Allah Ta’ala and His religion? The Prophet (PBUH) said:

“Acquiring knowledge is obligatory upon every Muslim” (Ibn Majah).

  Have we fulfilled this duty? These courses and webinars remind us not to lose sight of religion in our race for the world. If we want to strengthen our relationship with Allah Ta’ala, purify our hearts from evil, then now is the time to take these paths to strengthen our faith and take the teachings of the Qur’an and Sunnah into our hearts.

Important announcement

Our work was not only to wake you up, but we bear the pain of ours and your future generations in our hearts. We want to provide you with a platform where the students of religion can find the destination of light to irrigate their souls with the drink of 

” (2)اِقْرَاْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِیْ خَلَقَ(1)خَلَقَ الْاِنْسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ”,

“Recite in the name of your Lord who created man from a clot of blood.”(Surat al-Aq:1,2)

where they can escape from the desert of hatred, envy, temptation, and neglect. Be able to go out and step into the bright valleys of knowledge. It will be the place where the lamp of sincerity will burn in the heart of every student, and the pearls of knowledge will be scattered throughout the world. Think, if we make this knowledge a part of our soul and pass it down from generation to generation, what a great legacy we will leave behind. It is not only knowledge but trust that we have to pass on to those who come after us. We have to put an end to our negligence and carelessness and start a new dawn, a dawn where the servants of Allah will brighten their lives with the light of knowledge and spread love, peace, and the truth of religion in society.
