It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "The Qur'an will intercede and its intercession will be accepted; it will argue (on behalf of its reciters) and its argument will be confirmed. Whoever puts it before himself, it will lead him to Paradise, and whoever puts it behind his back, it will drive him into Hell."
