The reciters of the Holy Quran have been declared to be the special bondsmen of Allah Almighty. Further, the person who recites the Holy Quran for the pleasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ will neither feel any kind of nervousness nor will be asked for accountability on the Judgement Day. Just ponder! How great deprival it is to not recite the Holy Quran despite so many blessings and favours!

On the other hand, our pious predecessors رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی had such a great yearning for reciting the Holy Quran that they would deeply ponder over each blessed Ayah and would recite the Holy Quran with extreme pleasure and delight. One pious person رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی has stated: I start one Surah and observe such a thing in it that I remain standing until the morning, but the Surah does not get completed. (Ihya-ul-‘Uloom, pp. 852)

It is narrated about another pious person رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه who has stated: I do not consider the blessed Ayah, which I recite without understanding and attention, to be a source of reward. (Ihya-ul-‘Uloom, pp. 852)

Sayyiduna Sulayman Daarani رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has stated: When I recite an Ayah of the Holy Quran, I spend four or five nights pondering over it. If I do not stop myself pondering over it, I do not get time for the next Ayah.

(Ihya-ul-‘Uloom, pp. 852)

Ameer-ul-Mu`mineen Sayyiduna Usman-e-Ghani رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ would recite the Holy Quran so abundantly that 2 copies of the Holy Quran were worn-out due to it. Many blessed companions would recite the Holy Quran by looking at it and they did not like to pass a single day without seeing the Holy Quran.

(Ihya-ul-‘Uloom, pp. 843)

O Allah Kareem عَزَّوَجَلَّ! For the sake of devotees of the Holy Quran, make us devotees of the Holy Quran! May we find no peace without seeing and reciting the Holy Quran!

اٰمِــيْن بِـجَـاهِ الـنَّـبِـیِّ الْاَمِــيْن صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم
