Sayyiduna Abu Shurayh Khuza'i (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Once the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) came to us and said: "Accept glad tidings. Accept glad tidings. Do you not bear witness that there is no deity except Allah, and indeed I am the Messenger of Allah?" The people replied: "Yes!" So the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, this Qur'an is like a rope, one end of which is in the Hand of Allah the Exalted, and the other end is in your hands. Hold firmly to it, and after that you will never go astray nor be destroyed."
