Reading Quran correctly
Posted February 23rd, 2009 by 'abd
Shaykh Shah Abrar ul-Haq (may Allah have mercy on him) said,
‘Hadhrat Thanawi (may Allah have mercy on him) has written that there are four rights of the Holy Quran,
1. Respect, 2. Love, 3. Reading it with correct pronunciation, and 4. Following its rulings
In (khanqah of) Thana Bhawan some very senior scholars of Prophetic traditions (muhadith) had to read ‘Noorani Qai’da’, the primer for Quranic recitation.
We are concerned about the exterior painting and maintenance of our homes, so they may appear attractive.
Why aren’t we concerned about the attractiveness of our recitation of the blessed Quran?
Remember that finer realities and subtleties of Tasawwuf are of no use if attention is not paid to the essential teachings of the religion.
