Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“Indeed, the person who does not have anything of the Noble Qur’an in his chest is like a deserted house.”

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: This Noble Qur’an is the banquet of Allah Almighty, so take from it as much as you can. To my knowledge, there is no house more in need than the one in which there is not a portion of Allah’s Book. Indeed, the heart in which there is nothing from the Book of Allah is desolate, like a house in which no one lives.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Learn this Noble Qur'an, you will be given ten rewards for every letter you recite from it. I do not say that «الم» is one letter, rather «الف لام ميم» are three letters, and for each letter there are ten rewards.

Hafs bin Ghiyath Hanafi narrated that Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say: Indeed, if the Qur’an is recited in a house, it becomes spacious for its inhabitants, (the merciful) angels are present there, and Satan flees from that house, and goodness increases in it. And the house in which the Noble Qur’an is not recited becomes constricted for its inhabitants, the angels leave it, Satan comes and resides in it, and goodness becomes scarce in it.

Uqbah bin Amir says: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) say: "If the Noble Qur'an is written on leather and then thrown into the fire, it will not burn."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Recite the Qur'an, for it will be a very good intercessor on the Day of Resurrection. On the Day of Resurrection, it will say: O my Lord! Adorn him (the reciter of the Qur'an) with the ornament of honor. Thus, he will be adorned with the ornaments of honor and dignity. Then it will say: O Lord! Also clothe him with the garment of honor. Thus, that person will be clothed with the garment of honor. Then it will intercede: O Lord! Also crown him with the crown of honor. O Lord! Be pleased with him, for after Your pleasure, nothing else is needed.

Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: On the Day of Resurrection, the Noble Qur’an will come and intercede for its reciter, saying: O Lord! Every laborer receives wages for his work, and I used to prevent him from pleasure and sleep, so honor him. It will be said: Extend your right hand, and it will be filled with the pleasure of Allah Almighty. Then it will be said: Spread your left hand, and it too will be filled with the pleasure of Allah Almighty. He will be clothed with the garment of honor and dignity, adorned with the jewelry of nobility, and a crown of honor will be placed upon his head.

Abu Salih said: The Noble Qur'an will intercede for its reciter, so he will be clothed with a garment of honor. The Qur'an will say: O Lord! Increase (the reward), so a crown of honor will be placed on him. Then it will say: O Lord! Grant even more, bestow more upon him. Allah Almighty will grant him His pleasure. Imam Darimi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Wahib bin Al-Ward said: Make the recitation of the Qur'an a source of knowledge, not (just) an act.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Would any of you like that when he returns to his house, he finds three very fat pregnant she-camels?" It was said: Certainly, O Messenger of Allah! (Each one of us would like that), he said: "Then three verses which a person recites are better than those three (fat pregnant) she-camels."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Verily, this Qur'an is the banquet of Allah, so acquire as much knowledge from His banquet as you can. Indeed, this Noble Qur'an is the rope of Allah, light, healing, and beneficial. Whoever holds fast to it, for him it is a means (of protection from sins), and whoever follows it, for him it is salvation. Whoever walks upon it will not go astray so that he would need to seek approval, nor will he be crooked so that he would need to be straightened. Its wonders will never cease, and it will not become old by repeated recitation. Recite it, for indeed Allah the Exalted will reward you for its recitation; for every letter, there are ten good deeds. I do not say that "Alif Lam Meem" is one letter, but rather Alif is a letter, Lam is a letter, and Meem is a letter.
