Book Name:Kasrat e Tilawat Karnay Walon kay Waqiyat

Dear Islamic brothers! The Holy Quran is the unique Word of that Great     Rab عَزَّوَجَلَّ Who is All Alone worthy of worship, All Alone Creator and the Real Owner of the entire universe. Every goodness of the world and the Hereafter is in His providence in a real sense. He عَزَّوَجَلَّ revealed His this Word upon the chief of Rusul the Prophet of mankind, the Peace of our heart and mind, the most Generous and Kind صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم so that through it he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would call people to believe in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and follow the true religion. It is the sacred and blessed Word which is worship if it is seen, recited, listened      and touched. By reciting the Holy Quran abundantly with extreme love and devotion our pious saints رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی would get lots of mercy and blessings. Let’s listen to a faith-refreshing parable regarding this:

Devotee of Holy Quran!

It is said about Sayyiduna Muhammad Bin Isma`eel Bukhari رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه that despite being busy a lot the pleasure and delight of his worship was something to be followed. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه had great love for the recitation of the Holy Quran. In the nights of sacred Ramadan during Taraweeh he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would recite 10 parts in Nawafil and would complete the Holy Quran in the third night. Further, people would gather around him in the first night of blessed Ramadan, and he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would recite the Holy Quran in front of them. (Irshad-us-Saari, vol. 1, pp. 53)

His love for the Holy Quran can be judged by this parable as well that his Kaatib Muhammad Bin Abi Haatim رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه said that once he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was invited by some of his pupils, so he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه went there. When the time of Zuhr Salah came, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه offered Salah with people, then he  رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه started offering Nawafil. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه performed a very long Qiyam. When he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه completed his Salah, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه said to some of his companions raising one of the corners of his Qamees (a long loose shirt, worn by South Asian people): Look, what is there inside my Qamees? They saw that there was a (fatal animal) who had stung him at 16 to 17 places, causing his body to swell. The sign of stings was very clear. People said: Huzoor! Why didn’t you stop offering Salah, when this fatal animal stung you first time? It was replied: I started a Surah, I wished to complete it (then I would perform Salam).
