This may be done by using a copy of the Qur&#8217;aan or from o ne&#8217;s memory. Allaah &#8211; the Most High &#8211; said:<\/p>\n<p><strong> &#8220;This is a Book which We have sent down to you, full of blessings, that you may ponder over its Verses, and that men of understanding may remember.<\/strong>&#8221; [Soorah Saad38:29].<\/p>\n<p>And: <strong>&#8220;Indeed those who recite the Book of Allaah and offer the Prayer perfectly and spend in charity out of what We have provided for them &#8211; secretly and openly &#8211; hope for a sure trade-gain that will never perish. That He may pay the their wages in full and give them even more out of His Grace. Indeed, He is Oft-Forgiving, ready to appreciate good deeds.&#8221;<\/strong> [Soorah Fatir 35:29-30]<\/p>\n<p>The aforementioned recitation of the Qur&#8217;aan includes both reciting and acting upon it. The recitation is to be done with contemplation and understanding of it. Sincerity to Allaah is a means of complying with and acting upon the Qur&#8217;aan, and its recitation contains a great reward &#8211; as the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam said: &#8220;Recite the Qur&#8217;aan. For o n the Day of Resurrection, it shall come as an intercessor for its companion.&#8221; This was recorded by Muslim in his Saheeh (no. 804). The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam also said: &#8220;<em>The best of you is he who learns the Qur&#8217;aan and teaches it.&#8221;<\/em> This was recorded by al-Bukhaaree in his Saheeh (9\/66). Another narration states:<em> &#8220;Whoever reads o ne harf (letter) of the Qur&#8217;aan shall receive a good deed and ten good deeds similar to it. I do not say that Alif Laam Meem is a harf, but Alif is a harf, Laam is a harf and Meem is a harf.<\/em>&#8221; [Saheeh; Recorded by at-Tirmidhee (no. 2912), who authenticated it, from the hadeeth of `Abdullaah ibn Mas`ood, radhiallaahu `anhu]. The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam said to `Abdullaah ibn Amr ibn al-`Aas: &#8220;Complete the recitation of the Qur&#8217;aan o nce a month.&#8221; He said: I am able to do more than that. So he said: &#8220;Then complete its recital o nce in seven days.&#8221;[al-Bukhaaree (no. 5054)] The Companions used to complete the entire Qur&#8217;aan o nce every seven days.<\/p>\n<p>So I advise all the readers of the Qur&#8217;aan to increase in their reading of it, with contemplation and understanding it, along with sincerity to Allaah in this &#8211; with the purpose of learning and benefiting from the Qur&#8217;aan. They should read the entire Qur&#8217;aan o nce a month. If, however, they are able to do more than this without any difficulty, then they should complete it in less than this time. However, it is best not o complete it in less than three days, since this is the least amount of time that the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam mentioned to `Abdullaah ibn `Amr ibn al-`Aas. This is because if it is read in less than three days, the person becomes hasty and lacks thought and concentration\u2026 &#8220;[Fataawaa al-Mar`ah (no. 294)]<\/p>\n<p>Visit <a href=\"http:\/\/downloadquran.iloveAllaah.com\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/downloadquran.iloveAllaah.com<\/a> to Download Quran.<\/p>\n<p>Visit <a href=\"http:\/\/quran.iloveAllaah.com\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/quran.iloveAllaah.com<\/a> to read Quran Online.<\/p>\n<h3>Related Posts<\/h3>\n<p>No related posts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Shaykh &#8216;Abdul &#8216;Aziz Ibn Baz Question: What is your advice &#8211; O Shaykh &#8211; for those who go without reading the Qur&#8217;aan for a month, or even many months, and who have no excuse for such behaviour?
