Gems from the Qur’an

Through reciting the Qur’an and reflecting upon the meanings and lessons contained therein, stemming from the understanding that Allah intended, delivered by His Prophet and the succeeding first generations then applying them in our lives we become better slaves of Allah. It is for this purpose, ‘Taddabur’, understanding, reflecting and translating into action, inward and outward that the Qur’an was revealed.

“(It is) a Book We have revealed to you abounding in good that they may ponder over its verses, and that those endowed with understanding may be mindful.” (Qur’an 38:29)

Approaching the Qur’an with such sentiment is how one becomes from the greatest of Allah’s servants. 'Uthman bin 'Affan (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (S) said, "The best amongst you is the one who learns the Qur'an and teaches it." (Bukhari)
