7 tips
for improving your relationship with the Quran
Study the Noble Quran Word-for-Word
Are you one of those people who rarely touches the Quran? Or do
you read daily, but don't find it is having the impact on you that
it should? Whatever the case may be, these are some simple tips
that can help you connect with the Quran.
1. Before you touch it, check your heart
The key to really benefiting from the Quran is to check your
heart first, before you even touch Allah's book. Ask yourself,
honestly, why you are reading it. Is it to just get some
information and to let it drift away from you later? Remember that
the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was
described by his wife as a "walking Quran": in other words, he
didn't just read and recite the Quran, he lived it.
2. Do your Wudu (ablution)
Doing your Wudu is good physical and mental preparation to
remind you you're not reading just another book. You are about to
interact with God, so being clean should be a priority when
communicating with Him.
3. Read only 5 minutes everyday
Too often, we think we should read Quran for at least one whole
hour. If you aren't in the habit of reading regularly, this is too
much. Start off with just five minutes daily. If you took care of
step one, Insha Allah (God willing), you will notice that those
five minutes will become ten, then half an hour, then an hour, and
maybe even more!
4. Make sure you understand what you've read
Five minutes of reading the Quran in Arabic is good, but you
need to understand what you're reading. Make sure you have a good
translation of the Quran in the language you understand best.
Always try to read the translation of what you've read that day .
5. Remember, the Quran is more interactive than a CD
In an age of "interactive" CD-Roms and computer programs, a
number of people think books are passive and boring. But the Quran
is not like that. Remember that when you read Quran, you are
interacting with Allah. He is talking to you, so pay attention.
6. Don't just read, listen too
There are now many audio cassettes and CDs of the Quran, a
number of them with translations as well. This is great to put on
your walkman or your car's CD or stereo as you drive to and from
work. Use this in addition to your daily Quran reading, not as a
replacement for it.
7. Make Dua (supplication)
Ask Allah to guide you when you read the Quran. Your aim is to
sincerely, for the love of Allah, interact with Him by reading,
understanding and applying His blessed words. Making Dua to Allah
for help and guidance will be your best tool for doing this.
