It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Acquire the knowledge of the Book of Allah, hold firmly to it, and recite it with melody. By Him in Whose hand is my soul, this Qur'an departs even more swiftly than camels that are untied from their enclosures.
