THE IMPORTANCE AND THE MANNERS OF THE RECITATION OF THE GLORIOUS QURAN
It has been narrated by Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah that the Holy Prophet said that Quran was revealed about five aspects: (1) Halal (legitimate) (2) Haraam (illegitimate)
(3) Commandments (4) Metaphors and (5) Examples.
So you people should consider the Halal [legitimate] as Halal and Haraam [illegitimate] as Haraam, follow the commandments of the Quran [Muhkam] and believe in metaphors [Mutashabihat] and be warned from the examples and events of the previous Ummahs.
To be well aware of the abovementioned five perspectives of the Holy Quran, it is necessary that one should recite the Holy Quran with deep understanding again and again. The recitation of the Glorious Quran contains such abundant rewards that ten virtues are earned by reciting just one letter. For example, if someone only recites and if the reciter’s recitation is accepted, then thirty virtues will be attained because the reciter has recited three letters of the Holy Quran.
Few manners of recitation
- After doing Miswak and proper Wudu, one should sit down facing Qiblah. After reciting one should comprehend deeply on the words and meanings of the words of Holy Quran and should engage himself in the recitation of the Holy Quran by observing immense concentration along with extreme humbleness, meekness and fear of Allah. He should neither recite it very loudly, nor in a very low voice but recite it in a moderate volume.
- It is better to recite the Holy Quran by looking at it because it is also an act of worship to look at the Holy Quran. Moreover, there is also double the reward in the execution of multiple worships. It is stated in a Hadees that the person who recited the Holy Quran by looking at it, two thousands virtues will be written in his account and the one who recited orally without looking at will get one thousands virtues written in his account.
- One should not try to complete the recitation of the Holy Quran in less than three days, instead try to complete it in three, seven or forty days so that the meanings and contexts of the recited verses can be understood properly.
