It is narrated from Hazrat Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: On the Day of Resurrection, when a person's grave will be split open, the Qur'an will meet its reciter in the form of a lean man and will say to him: I am your companion, the Qur'an, who kept you thirsty in the intense heat of the afternoons and kept you awake at night.
