Be so close
Be so close to the Quran that with every turn of its page, your heart also turns. You undergo a change of character; and come out better. You come closer to Allah and you understand your religion more.
Be so close to the Quran that not only do you consider it to be your companion in life, but it also considers *you* to be its companion both here and on Yawm al-Qiyamah (Day of Resurrection).
Be so close to the Quran that whenever you open to read it, it draws you in deeply and takes you on amazing journeys through power concepts and thought-provoking dialogue, through history and the undisputed facts of the future and Hereafter; learning life lessons and learning about yourself. The journey doesn’t end until you end it (by closing the Book).
Be so close to the Quran that you make it your first point of judgement and guidance when you quarrel or fall out with a relative, friend or stranger. You place it before you with the sincerity to resolve matters and follow the causes for peace.
“… If they both desire reconciliation, Allah will cause harmony between them. Indeed, Allah is ever Knowing and All-Aware.”
[al-Nisa: 35]
[al-Nisa: 35]
Be so close to the Quran that if you happen to miss your daily portion of it, it preoccupies your mind and you are not at peace until you take your regular nourishment from it.
Be so close to the Quran that just hearing the words, “O you who believe…” strikes something within your heart. You are all ears and attentive; ready to respond.
Be so close to the Quran that you truly feel its blessings in your life.
Be so close to the Quran that while many love listening to music and lyrical tunes, for you nothing can beat the melodious recital of your favourite Surah (chapter).
Be so close to the Quran that you actually walk F E A R L E S S. In every place, at all times, and every stage of your life. Your fear is only from One Being, and He is above His Throne, `azza wa jall.
Be so close to the Quran that the mere contemplation of a verse brings tears to your eyes.
Be so close to the Qur’an that after a long and tiring day, all you want to do is make wudu (ablution) and sit down with a cuppa tea in a cosy spot for some heartwarming reading and reflection.
Be so close to the Quran that it becomes the first companion you turn to when you need to hear comforting words, or a shoulder to lean on in difficult times, or guidance in times of confusion. It becomes your first point of contact alongside salah (prayer) and du’a (supplication).
Be so close to the- Quran that its melodious verses drown away the meaningless chatter of this world and you prefer listening to it instead of listening to much of Mankind…
Be so close to the Quran that you become recognised for it; in your character and the way you carry yourself through life.
Be so close to the Quran that being in its company makes you feel like you are in the best company; the most serene, thought-provoking, heart-warming, and tranquil of gatherings. People think you are alone… but you are anything but alone.
Be so close to the Quran that you can’t fathom the idea of dying without having memorised it. You can’t see yourself standing in front of Allah in complete ignorance of His Book, His Verses, His Words.
