Books have always been one of human beings’ biggest and the best companions, not only particular to present times, but all through the history of humanity. However, there is one book that enjoys an exalted status never even imaginable for any other book, i.e. Holy Quran.
Some people might argue that Muslims praise the Holy Qur’an out of their religious prejudices and preferences, but if we keep religious attachments aside, even then there is no comparison to Quran. It still remains special in countless ways, the biggest of which is its eloquently unique content.
Other than that, one of the biggest of its attributes is its highly reserved sanctity and authenticity. Since Allah Almighty Himself vows to keep it safe and secure to make sure its authenticity is reserved, we find it to be containing the exact same words as revealed onto Allah’s Last Apostle Muhammad (PBUH) more than 1400 years ago.
Allah (SWT), in Qur’an Himself claims so, in the following words:
“Indeed it is We who have sent down the Quran, and indeed it is Us who shall preserve it.” (Surah 15:9)
Learn quran by heart can be attributed as another of the honor Allah’s book enjoys. It is a book with great volume, but still countless people vow to learn its content by heart all through the 14 centuries of its existence.
Just have a look at what Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) also said about learning Quran:
“On the Day of Qiyaamah a crown of such brilliance will be placed on the heads of the parents of one who learnt the Qur’aan and practised on its laws, that its glitter will outshine the brilliance of the sun which penetrates your houses. What then do you think will be the position of the one who himself learnt the Qur’aan and acted in accordance with it?”
May Allah Almighty helps us in learning His gracious words of Quran and live our lives according to them.
