Virtues of the Glorious Quran

It is the right of the Glorious Quran that it is loved, it is recited, it is understood, it is believed in, acted upon and imparted to others. Numerous virtues and excellences of the Glorious Quran have been mentioned in blessed Ahadith. Eleven (11) of them are presented here:

» The best medicine is the Glorious Quran. [Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith 3501]

» The best worship of my Ummah is recitation of the Glorious Quran. [Shu'ab al-Iman, Hadith 2022]

» The best person amongst you is the one who learnt the Holy Quran, and taught it to others. [Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 5027]

» Continue reciting the Glorious Quran as it will intercede for it’s reciters on the Day of Judgement. [Sahih Muslim, Hadith 804]

» Whoever teaches one Ayah of the Glorious Quran, as long as that Ayah continues to be recited, he will continue to get reward. [Jam’ al-Jawami, Hadith 22456]

» People of the Glorious Quran (i.e. those who recite and act upon the commandments mentioned in it) are the ones who love Allah and His special people. [Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith 215]

» Whoever learnt and taught the Holy Quran, and then acted upon whatever is in the Holy Quran; the Quran will intercede for him and take him into Paradise. [Mu’jam Kabir, Hadith 10450]

» Whoever teaches one Ayah of the Glorious Quran or any Sunnah of the Din to anyone, Allah will prepare such a reward for him on the Day of Judgement, that there will be no reward better than that for anybody. [Jam’ al-Jawami, Hadith 22454]

» Whoever recites a letter of the Book of Allah (the Quran) he will be credited with a good deed, and a good deed gets a tenfold reward. I do not say that Alif-Laam-Meem are one letter; but Alif is a letter, Laam is a letter and Meem is a letter. [Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith 2910]

» Whoever recited the Quran and acts according to its contents, on the Day of Resurrection his parents will be given to wear a crown whose light is better than the light of the sun in the dwellings of this world if it were among you. So what do you think of him who acts according to this? [Musnad Ahmad, Hadith 15645]

» Three kinds of people will be on the hills of dark musk, they will be free from any kind of distress, nor will they be asked for accountability until people will finish their accountability. (Out of them one) will be that person who recited the Glorious Quran for the pleasure of Allah and led people in prayer and they are happy with him. [Shu'ab al-Iman, Hadith 2002]
