Acquiring A Non-perishable Profit

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate
Assalaamu alaykum

Dear Friends

I pray that you are well.

Preoccupation with the Qur'an is one of the most virtuous acts of worship, whether by reciting it, pondering on its meanings, or working according to its teachings.

The Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, have received this Noble Quran, realizing the honor which Allah Almighty, has bestowed upon them. Therefore, they embarked upon it, reciting it during part of the hours of the night, and during the day. People passed by them at night, while they were reciting the Qur'an, and their recitation were like the buzzing of bees. They made it the nourishment of their souls, the food of their hearts, and the comfort of their eyes. Their souls became purified by it, and their secret selves transformed.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَتْلُونَ كِتَـٰبَ ٱللَّـهِ وَأَقَامُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَأَنفَقُوا۟ مِمَّا رَزَقْنَـٰهُمْ سِرًّا وَعَلَانِيَةً يَرْجُونَ تِجَـٰرَةً لَّن تَبُورَ ﴿٢٩﴾ لِيُوَفِّيَهُمْ أُجُورَهُمْ وَيَزِيدَهُم مِّن فَضْلِهِۦٓ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ غَفُورٌ شَكُورٌ ﴿٣٠

Indeed, those who recite the Book of Allah and establish prayer and spend [in His cause] out of what We have provided them, secretly and publicly, [can] expect a profit that will never perish - (29) That He may give them in full their rewards and increase for them of His bounty. Indeed, He is Forgiving and Appreciative. (30)
[Qur'an Fatir 35:29-30]

May Allah grant us tawfiq to love Qur'an. Ameen.

Please don't forget us in your night prayers. Jazakallahu khairan.

And Allah knows best.
Wassalaam
