  6. from jinn and humans

Description of Surah an-Nas

Surahs from the Qur'an have been sent down for this mankind. From Arabic, the word "an-Nas" is translated as "People". The Almighty sent down a sura in Mecca, it contains 6 verses. The Lord turns to the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) with the requirement to always resort to His help, to seek only protection from evil from Allah. By "evil" is meant not so much the sorrows that accompany the earthly path of people, but the imperceptible evil that we ourselves commit, following the lead of our own passions, desires, whims. The Almighty calls this evil “the evil of Satan”: human passions are a genie-tempter who constantly tries to lead a person astray from the righteous path. Shaitan disappears only at the mention of Allah: that is why it is so important to read regularly and.

It must be remembered that the devil uses to deceive people those vices that are hidden in themselves, to which they often strive with all their hearts. Only an appeal to the Almighty can save a person from the evil that lives in him.

Description of Surah Al-Falyak

Sura "Dawn" Allah sent down to the Prophet in Mecca. The prayer contains 5 verses. The Almighty, turning to His Prophet (peace be upon him), requires him and all his followers to always seek salvation and protection from the Lord. A person will find salvation from Allah from all creatures that can harm him. “Evil of darkness” is an important epithet that denotes the anxiety, fear and loneliness that people experience at night: such a state is familiar to everyone. Sura "Dawn", insha Allah, protects a person from the instigations of shaitans, who seek to sow hatred between people, cut off family and friendly ties, instill envy in their souls. Prayer, insha Allah will save from the wicked, who lost the mercy of Allah because of his spiritual weakness, and now seeks to plunge other people into the abyss of sin.

Surah Al-Ikhlas

Very short, easy to remember, but at the same time, extremely effective and useful sura. To listen to Al-Ikhlas in Arabic, you can use video or MP3. The word "Al-Ikhlas" in Arabic means "Sincerity". Sura is a sincere declaration of love and devotion to Allah.

Transcription (phonetic sound of the sura in Russian):

Bismi-llayahi-rrahmaani-rrahiim

  1. Kul hu Allah ahad.
  2. Allah s-samad.
  3. Lam yalid wa lam yulad
  4. Walam yakullahu kufuan ahad.

Semantic translation into Russian:

  1. Say: "He is Allah, the One,
  2. Allah is self-sufficient.
  3. He did not give birth and was not born,
  4. and there is none equal to Him.”

Description of Surah Al-Ikhlas

Sura "Sincerity" Allah sent down to the Prophet in Mecca. Al-Ikhlas contains 4 verses. Muhammad told his disciples that once he was mockingly asked about his attitude towards the Almighty. The answer was Surah Al-Ikhlas, which contains the statement that Allah is Self-sufficient, that He is One and Only in His perfection, that He has always been, and there is no one equal to Him in strength.

With the requirement to tell them about His God, the pagans who professed polytheism turned to the Prophet (peace be upon him). The literal translation of the question they used was "What is your Lord made of?". For paganism, a material understanding of God was common: they created idols from wood and metal, worshiped animals and plants. The answer of Muhammad (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) shocked the pagans so much that they abandoned the old faith and recognized Allah.

Many hadiths point to the benefits of Al-Ikhlas. Within the framework of one article it is impossible to name all the advantages of the sura, there are so many of them. Here are just the most important ones:

In one hadith it is said how Muhammad (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) turned to people with the following question: “Isn’t each of you able to read a third of the Qur’an in a night?”. The townspeople were amazed and asked how this was possible. The Prophet replied: “Read Surah Al-Ikhlas! It is equal to one third of the Qur'an." This hadeeth suggests that in the sura "Sincerity" so much wisdom is concentrated, how much can not be found in any other text. But not one thinking person is 100% sure that this is exactly what the Prophet said, word for word, so peace be upon him, even if this hadith (the word "hadith" is translated from Arabic as "story") is good in meaning, because if he (peace be upon him) him) did not say so, then this is a slander and a lie on the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).

It is important to know: all these hadiths may not be reliable. Hadiths must be looked at for their correspondence with the Qur'an. If a hadith contradicts the Qur'an, then it must be discarded, even if it somehow manages to be put into collections of reliable hadith.

Another hadith retells the words of the Prophet to us: “If a believer is fifty times every day, then on the Day of Resurrection a voice from above will be heard over his grave: “Arise, O praiser of Allah, enter Paradise!”. In addition, the Messenger said: “If a person reads Surah Al-Ikhlas a hundred times, then Almighty Allah will forgive him the sins of fifty years, provided that he does not commit four types of sins: the sin of bloodshed, the sin of acquisitiveness and hoarding, the sin of debauchery and the sin drinking alcohol." Saying a sura is a work that a person does for the sake of Allah. If this work is done with diligence, the Almighty will surely reward the one who prays.

Hadiths repeatedly point to the reward that is received for reading the sura "Sincerity". The reward is proportional to the number of readings of the prayer, the time spent on this. One of the most famous hadiths contains the words of the Messenger, demonstrating the incredible significance of Al-Ikhlas: “If anyone reads Surah Al-Ikhlas once, he will be overshadowed by the grace of the Almighty. Whoever reads it twice, then he and his whole family will be under the shadow of grace. If someone reads it three times, then he himself, his family and his neighbors will receive grace from above. Whoever reads it twelve times, Allah will grant twelve palaces in Paradise. Whoever reads it twenty times, he [on the Day of Judgment] will walk with the prophets like this (saying these words, the Prophet joined and raised his middle and index fingers) Whoever reads it a hundred times, the Almighty will forgive all his sins for twenty-five years except for the sin of bloodshed and the sin of default. Whoever reads it two hundred times, the sins of fifty years will be forgiven. Anyone who reads this surah four hundred times will get a reward equal to the reward of four hundred martyrs who shed blood and whose horses were wounded in battle. Whoever reads Surah Al-Ikhlas a thousand times, he will not die without seeing his place in Paradise, or until he is shown it.

Another hadith contains a kind of recommendation for people who are going on a journey or are already on the road. Travelers are instructed to recite Al-Ikhlas eleven times while grasping the doorposts of their house with both hands. If this is done, then the person will be protected on the way from shaitans, their negative impact and attempts to instill fear and uncertainty in the soul of the traveler. In addition, the recitation of the sura "Sincerity" is a guarantee of a safe return to places dear to the heart.

It is important to know: no sura in itself can help a person in any way, only Allah can help a person and believers rely on Him! And many hadiths, as we see, contradict the Koran - the direct speech of Allah Himself!

There is another option for reading Surah Al-Ikhlas - in combination with Al-Nas and Al-Falak. Each prayer is said three times. Reading these three suras is a protection from evil forces. As the prayer is said, it is necessary to blow on the person we want to protect. Surah is especially useful for children. If the baby cries, screams, kicks his legs, there are signs of the evil eye, be sure to try Al-Ikhlas, Al-Nas and Al-Falak. The effect will be stronger if you read the suras before going to bed.

Sura Yasin Allah sent Muhammad (peace be upon him) in Mecca. In this text, the Almighty informed the Prophet (sallallahu ‘aleihi wa sallam) that he is the messenger of the Lord, and from the moment of revelation, his task is to enlighten, teach and exhort the people, vegetating in the abyss of polytheism. The sura also speaks of those who dare to disobey the instructions of Allah, who refuse to accept the Messenger - these unfortunate ones will face severe punishment and universal censure.

Greatest verse in Islam. Every believer needs to memorize it carefully and pronounce it in accordance with the instructions of the prophet.

Transcription in Russian:

  • Allahu laya ilyayahe ilyaya huval-hayyul-kayyuum, laya ta - huzuhu sinatuv-valaya navm, lyahumaafis-samaavaati wamaafil-ard, man hall-lyazii

  • wasi‘a kursiyuhu ssamaavati val-ard, valyaya yauduhu hifzuhumaa wa huval-‘aliyul-‘aziim.

semantic translation:

“Allah (God, Lord) ... There is no god but Him, the Eternally Living, Existing. Neither sleep nor slumber will overtake him. He owns everything in heaven and on earth. Who will intercede before Him, except by His will!? He knows what was and what will be. No one is able to comprehend even particles from His knowledge, except by His will. Heaven and Earth are embraced by the course (Great Throne) of Him, and He does not bother to care for them [About everything that is in our galactic system]. He is the Most High [by all characteristics above everything and everything], the Great [His greatness has no limits]!” (see, Holy Quran, sura “al-Baqarah”, ayat 255 (2:255)).

Ayat Al-Kursi is included in Sura Al-Baqara (translated from Arabic - a cow). According to the account in the sura, ayat 255th. It should be said right away that many prominent theologians believe that Al-Kusri is a separate sura, and not an ayat. Be that as it may, the Messenger stated that the verse is the key one in the Koran, it contains the most important statement that distinguishes Islam from other religions - the dogma of monotheism. In addition, the verse gives evidence of the greatness and infinite nature of the Lord. In this sacred text, Allah is called "Ismi 'azam" - this name is considered the most worthy name of God.

Instructional video for the correct pronunciation of Ayat Al Kursi

It is important to know: you should not read the Quran loudly in a chant, and even more so compete in it - while listening to such melodies you will fall into a trance and you will not understand the most important thing - the meaning that Allah conveyed to mankind to observe the Quran and meditate on His verses.

Surah Al-Baqarah

- the second and most voluminous in the Qur'an. The sacred text contains 286 verses that reveal the very essence of religion. The sura contains the teachings of Allah, the instruction of the Lord to Muslims, a description of how they should behave in various situations. In general, we can say that Surah Al-Baqarah is a text that regulates the whole life of a believer. The document says almost everything: about revenge, about the distribution of inheritance among the relatives of the deceased, about the use of alcoholic beverages, about playing cards and dice. Much attention is paid to the issues of marriage and divorce, the trading side of life, and relations with debtors.

From the Arabic language "Al-Baqara" is translated as "Cow". This name is associated with a parable, which is given in the sura. The parable tells about the Israelite cow and Musa, peace be upon him. In addition, the text contains many stories about the life of the Prophet and his followers. In "Al-Baqara" it is directly stated that the Koran is a guide in the life of a Muslim, which is given to him by the Almighty. In addition, in the sura there is a mention of believers who have received favor from Allah, as well as those who have angered the Almighty with disobedience and a tendency to disbelief.

Let us remember the words of the Great Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “Do not turn your houses into graves. Shaitan flees from the house where Surah al-Baqarah is being recited. This exceptionally high assessment of the Surah "The Cow" allows us to consider it the most important in the Koran. The great significance of the sura is also emphasized by another hadith: “Read the Qur'an, because on the Day of Resurrection he will come and will intercede for his own. Read two blooming suras - suras "al-Baqara" and "Ali Imran", because on the Day of Resurrection they will appear like two clouds or two flocks of birds lined up in rows and will intercede for their own. Read Surah al-Baqarah, because there is grace and abundance in it, and without it there is sadness and annoyance, and sorcerers cannot cope with it.

In Surah Al-Baqarah, the last 2 verses are considered the main ones:

  • 285. The messenger and the believers believed in what was sent down to him from the Lord. They all believed in Allah, His angels, His Scriptures and His messengers. They say, "We make no distinction between His messengers." They say: “Listen and obey! We ask for Your forgiveness, our Lord, and we will arrive to You.
  • 286. Allah does not burden a person beyond his capacity. He will get what he has acquired, and what he has acquired will be against him. Our Lord! Do not punish us if we have forgotten or made a mistake. Our Lord! Do not place on us the burden that You placed on our predecessors. Our Lord! Do not burden us with what we cannot afford. Be kind to us! Forgive us and have mercy! You are our Protector. Help us to prevail over unbelieving people.

In addition, the sura contains the verse "Al-Kursi", which we have quoted above. The great meaning and incredible importance of Al-Kursi has been repeatedly emphasized by leading theologians who referred to famous hadiths. The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, calls on Muslims to read these verses, teach them, teach them to their family members, wives and children. After all, the last two verses “Al-Bakar” and “Al-Kursi” are a direct appeal to the Almighty.

Interesting facts about Surah Al-Fatiha

Undoubtedly, the sura "Al-Fatiha" is the greatest sura of the Koran. This is confirmed by the epithets that it is customary to designate this unique text: “Opening Book”, “Mother of the Quran”, etc. The Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him!) repeatedly pointed out the special significance and value of this sura. For example, the Prophet said the following: "Whoever did not read the Opening Book (i.e. Surah al-Fatiha), he did not perform a prayer." In addition, the following words belong to him: “Whoever makes a prayer without reading the Opening Book in it, then it is not complete, not complete, not complete, not finished.” In this hadith, special attention is drawn to the threefold repetition of the word "not complete." The Prophet framed the phrase in such a way as to increase the impact on the listener, to emphasize that without reading Al-Fatih, prayer may not reach the Almighty.

Every Muslim should know that the Al-Fatiha sura is an indispensable element of prayer. The text deserves the honor of being in front of any sura of the Qur'an. "Al-Fatiha" is the most read sura in the Islamic world, the verses from it are pronounced constantly and in each of the rak'ahs.

One of the hadiths claims that the Almighty will reward the reader of the Al-Fatiha surah to the same extent as the person who read 2/3 of the Koran. Another hadith quotes the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him!): “I received 4 things from the special treasures of ‘Arsh (Throne), from which no one ever received anything. These are Surah Fatiha, Ayatul Kursi, the last verses of Surah Bakara and Surah Kausar. The colossal significance of Surah Al-Fatiha is also emphasized by the following hadith: “Four times Iblis had to grieve, cry and tear his hair out: the first when he was cursed, the second when he was driven from heaven to earth, the third when the Prophet (sallallahu ' alayhi wa sallam) received the fourth prophecy when Surah Fatiha was sent down.

“Muslim Sharif” contains one very revealing hadith, which cites the words of the Great Prophet (may Allah bless him and be present”: “Today one of the doors of heaven opened, which had never opened before. And one angel descended from it, who had never before descended. And the angel said: "Receive the good news about two nurs that have never been given to anyone before you. One is the sura "Fatiha", and the second is the end of the sura "Baqarah (the last three verses)".

What is the first thing that comes to mind in this hadeeth? Of course, the fact that the suras "Fatiha" and "Bakara" are called "nurs" in it. Translated from Arabic, this word means "light." On the Day of Judgment, when Allah will judge people for their earthly path, the read suras will become a light that will attract the attention of the Almighty and allow Him to separate the righteous from the sinners.

"Al-Fatiha" is "Ismi A'zam", that is, a text that should be read in any situation. Even in ancient times, doctors noticed that the sura written in rose oil on the bottom of porcelain dishes makes the water exceptionally healing. The patient needs to drink water for 40 days. In a month he will feel relief, God willing. To improve the condition with a toothache, headache, pain in the abdomen, the sura must be read exactly 7 times.

The key to success is the ability to write correctly. After you master the letter, you can safely move on to the practice of reading and grammar.

You will need:

Get over the alphabet

The Arabic alphabet is the first thing you have to do. It consists of 28 letters, 2 of which are vowels: "alif" and "ey". The spelling of many letters depends on their placement: the beginning, middle or end of a word.

The main difference from Russian is that words in Arabic are read from right to left. When writing, you need to follow the same principle.

You need to learn and remember how to read letters and pronounce them correctly. It will be easiest to use a translator, as you can visually study the letter and hear its pronunciation. Video tutorials can also help you master the language on your own. At the same time, you can find a large number of them on the Internet and choose at your discretion.

A self-instruction manual can be purchased at a bookstore and in this case it will be an appendix to a book that will give you the opportunity to become familiar with the language. If you like books, choose the right one.

It is advisable to purchase with additional audio files that will help you hear the correct pronunciation.

When learning a language, use the same type of Quran, this will help develop visual and auditory memory.

Stress and pauses in words

When learning Arabic, don't forget to look at where the accents are.

A slight difficulty will be that the language has not one stress, but several: primary and secondary.

The main stress contributes to an increase in the intonation of the voice, the secondary ones take on the power function. Pay attention to the reading rhythm, which is built on a series of stressed and unstressed syllables.

Use the rules for combining words, study the rules of pauses in detail. Since a misread text can lead to a loss of meaning or its change. After studying the types of pauses, read the text in the presence of a person who knows the Qur'an. He will explain what mistakes you make and how to avoid them.

Text volume

Set yourself certain tasks for each day that you will perform. Decide how much information you can process daily. After that, carefully reread the given volume several times, try to remember it and try to repeat it on your own during the day.

Until the moment you remember a passage of text, do not start studying the next one.

Start with the first sura of Al-Fatiha. Read each verse of the surah 20 times. For example, Surah Al-Fatiha consists of seven verses, each must be repeated 20 times, after which all verses must also be read 20 times.

In order to start studying the next sura, it is necessary to repeat the previous one the same number of times.

Writing and grammar

The main task is to write as much and as often as possible. The letter must be brought to automatism. The difficulty may be that you also need to write from right to left, you need to get used to this. Distribute tasks throughout the month and you will master the correct spelling.

Ramadan is called the month of the Quran, because it was in this month that the Holy Book of Allah Almighty was sent down. During the days of fasting, believers devote more time to serving their Creator, more often they read His Word. There is also the practice of reciting the entire Qur'an during the month of fasting in Taraweeh prayers.

One day the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) got up at night and began to read Surah al-Baqarah. Reading the verses, which speak of the mercy of Allah, he asked the mercy of the Almighty. Reading the verses, which speak of the punishment of Allah, of His greatness, he asked for protection. When he recited verses with praise, he praised Allah.

The companions heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Subhana rabi'al a'la ”, praising the Almighty, because He commanded to do this:

سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الأَعْلَى

« Praise the name of your Lord Supreme » Koran, 87:1.

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Whoever reads Sura 95“ At-Tin ”after reading the last verse:

أَلَيْسَ اللهُ بِأَحْكَمِ الحَاكِمِينَ

« Is not Allah the Just Judge? »

it is desirable to answer:

" بَلَى وَأَنَاعَلَى ذَلِكَ مِنَ الشَّاهِدِينَ "

« Yes it is and I testify to it ". So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught and commented on the speech of the Almighty to the companions.

Is it better to read the Quran aloud or silently? At times the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited the Qur'an loudly and could be heard in neighboring rooms, at other times quietly. Abu Bakr was asked how he recited the Quran. He replied that he was reading quietly because Allah is "near" to us. Umar was asked the same thing, he replied that he likes to read aloud in order to wake the sleeping one and drive away the shaitan. A person can read the Quran aloud and silently, depending on the time and place.

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) read some part of the Qur'an every day. He devoted a certain part of the time to the Koran, like a wyrd. For three days, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reread the Quran in full. Companions did the same. Some of them completed the reading within seven days, like many scholars and righteous people of our ummah. By reading juz of the Qur'an every day, one can read the Qur'an for a month.

في حديث أنس أنه سئل أي الأعمال أفضل؟فقال: الحال المرتحل. قيل: وماذاك؟قال: الخاتم المفتتح

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked: Which action is preferable? " He replied: " This is the state of the traveler. ". Asked him: " What does it mean? » Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): “When you finish reading the Quran, start reading again ". That is, having finished reading 114 sura "an-Nas", it is advisable to proceed to the first sura "al-Fatiha", and so constantly, without stopping - having completed, proceed to the beginning. So a person is constantly accompanied by the speech of Allah.

For some people, it may be difficult to read the Quran a lot every day. Start small: read one page at a time, gradually adding one sheet at a time. The most important thing in reading the Koran is constancy, so that there is a daily connection between the Lord and the slave. As a man spent his life, so he will be resurrected. If you read the Qur'an, you will be resurrected with the Qur'an, for the Qur'an is the light that guides man.

The greatest delight in Paradise will be the opportunity to read the Qur'an and listen to it from the mouth of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). As reported in the hadith, he will read the surah "Taha" in front of the inhabitants of Paradise. It is a great joy to hear Surah "Taha" from Tahi (one of the names of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him).

Transcript of the sermon Sheikh Muhammad As-Saqaf

Mamoon Yusaf

In this article, you will learn the fastest and most effective ways to improve your Arabic Quran reading technique. Following our advice, over time you will forget that you stammered and stuttered in simple words, and you can read any page of the Qur'an as easily as you read the al-Fatiha sura.

But first, let me tell you how I realized that I needed to seriously work on my reading technique. This happened at an event in which one fairly well-known scientist participated ...

When I realized my technique was weak

When I was a student, I often participated in the preparation of various activities and classes for Muslim students. I have always been considered an activist because I did a lot for the Islamic societies of our university.

So, I was busy organizing a meeting with a famous scholar, ran among everyone with an important air, until I noticed that the hafiz, whom we invited to read the Koran at the beginning of the evening, did not appear.

Immediately, I began to mentally sort out everyone who could replace him. But, looking around, I realized that none of these people were there. I began to frantically search for at least someone, even if not from our society. I even stopped people at random, but everyone refused: “No, my reading is lame - why can’t you yourself?”

They asked why I couldn't read myself! I completely lost my feet and realized that I had no way out. At first I decided to read what I know by heart, but it turned out that I only remember a few short surahs at the end of the Qur'an, and it was somehow “dishonest” to read them.

Fortunately, I practiced Surah Yasin and recently listened to it several times, so I decided to stop at it ...

Believe me, never in my life have I experienced such relief after reading the Qur'an as I did that time. Usually on stage I feel calm, but then I just sweated from excitement. I stuttered and stuttered almost every word. Imagine, I almost stumbled on the words “ya sin”.

When it was over, the scholar nodded to me and said, "You know, you should read more of the Quran." Imagine how embarrassing!

I myself understood everything: I had to properly take up the recitation. It was a long journey of trial and error, but I got through it, and here's how:

5 Ways to Improve Your Quran Reading Technique

1. Old Thai proverb

The Thais, known to us for inventing the muay thai style of kickboxing, used to say, "If you want to be a good fighter... fight!" This is true even if your goal is to learn how to recite the Qur'an competently and fluently.

Do what the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was first commanded to do: read. Read as much as you can, as often as you can. This moment cannot be replaced. The more you read, the better you get at it. Before you know it, you will already be reading an unfamiliar page as quickly as you used to read a few lines.

2. Link old and new habit

Without a doubt, this is the only truly effective way to create a new habit. You must associate the habit of reading the Qur'an in Arabic with what you do daily and never miss. For example, brush your teeth or get dressed in the morning.

A great way is to time the reading to one (or several) prayers that you perform every day. So you will be in a state of voodoo, and one of the main psychological barriers will be overcome.

And when you decide which prayer to choose, promise yourself to read after it a small passage from the Koran every day, and so for thirty days.

3. Repetition is the mother of learning

And now I will teach you a technique that will allow you to double or triple the quality and speed of reading. Let's say you decide to read two pages of the Qur'an after Isha prayer and 2 pages in the morning before leaving for work.

“But will that mean I only read one page?” you say. Yes, but you did it four times, and more importantly, the fourth time you read three to four times faster than the first. What if you read one page five times a day?

The next day, move on to the next page, and so on. At the end of the week, you may want to “go over” all seven pages that you completed during the week again.

You may even want to do this with a tajweed teacher who will correct your mistakes. You will find that you are still reading the very first page 2-3 times faster and more confidently than on the first try.

And in 600 days you will read the Quran 6 times! And let them envy you!

If you decide to read one page five times a day and once at the end of the week, then it turns out that by the number of pages in a hundred days, that is, in three months, you will read the whole Quran! This means that in a year you will do it four times.

4. Remember keywords

The key to understanding the Qur'an is to know by heart the basic words of the Qur'an. If you learn 300 of these words, it will be about 70% of all the words of the Qur'an. But you need to memorize the “correct” words.

They will help you when reading, linking the text together, therefore, having learned these common words by heart, you will recognize them when you meet, and then something amazing will happen ...

Just like in your native language, you will unconsciously mark the first and last letters of a familiar word, and immediately recognize the whole word, that is, you will not have to read it letter by letter. I want to say that when you start to recognize the most common words right away, your reading technique will improve many, many times over.

However, this tip does not replace the previous three. Don't wait until you learn all the right words to start reading. This is a common mistake and a waste of time. You may know all three hundred words, but if you have never read the Quran aloud, you will still come out very slowly.

If within a month you can memorize 5-10 words every day and still read, in a month or two you will know 70% of all the words of the Quran. You will see for yourself that this will make you want to learn and read again and again, will give you confidence in your abilities.

5. Use digital devices

Digital technology will also help you move forward quickly. Record a recitation of a famous hafiz whose voice you like. Listen to him read one page at a time and read along with him, running your finger along the lines. If you are too behind, then just follow the text. Then return to the top of the page and start all over again, and so on several times. Since the hafiz reads much faster than you, you will go through one page several times in one go. First, you will learn to follow the text with your eyes, and then say it out loud.

So, in short, here are five rules for improving the technique of reciting the Quran:

1. Constantly practice reading like a boxer practicing punches over and over again.
2. Read one page of the Qur'an immediately after prayer.
3. Before going any further, read it several times.
5. Learn five words from the Koran a day, and so for two months.
6. Read under the recording of the reading of the hafiz.

The significance of this Great Book for Muslims cannot be overestimated. The Qur'an is a kind of guide for a person to fulfill his destiny, to establish and maintain harmonious relationships with the Almighty, society and himself.

The Qur'an consists of 114 chapters (suras) and more than 6,000 verses (verses). The Holy Scriptures are divided into 7 equal parts for easy reading during the week and 30 parts (juz) for even reading in a month. The content of the Qur'anic suras is classified by researchers as the Meccan part - the period of the beginning of the path of the Prophet ﷺ and Medina - the time of his wide recognition.

The most important suras

  • "Opening a Book"("Al-Fatiha"). It is read in all obligatory daily prayers (1st sura).
  • "Sincerity"("Al-Ikhlas") - which is called the "creed" (Sura 112)
  • "Ayat of the Throne"("Al-Kursiy"). According to the Prophet ﷺ, this verse comes first in the Qur'an. It tells about the power and absolute power of Allah ﷻ (Sura 2, verse 255).
  • "Ayat about the Light"(Suras "An-Nur") describes the glory of Allah ﷻ (Sura 24, verse 35).
  • "Ya-Sin", the Meccan sura, which is called the "heart of the Qur'an" (Sura 36).

In what languages ​​did you personally read the Quran?

Let's share in the comments.

The Quran is the holy book of Muslims. From Arabic it is translated as "reading aloud", "edification". Reading the Quran is subject to certain rules - tajwid.

World of the Quran

The task of tajwid is the correct reading of the letters of the Arabic alphabet - this is the basis for the correct interpretation of divine revelation. The word "tajvid" is translated as "bringing to perfection", "improvement".

Tajweed was originally created for people who want to learn how to read the Qur'an correctly. To do this, you need to clearly know the places of articulation of letters, their characteristics and other rules. Thanks to tajvid (rules of orthoepic reading), it is possible to achieve the correct pronunciation and eliminate the distortion of semantic meaning.

Muslims treat reading the Quran with trepidation, it is like a meeting with Allah for believers. It is important to prepare properly for reading. It is better to be alone and study early in the morning or before bed.

History of the Quran

The Qur'an was sent down in parts. The first revelation to Muhammad was given at the age of 40. For 23 years, the verses continued to be sent down to the Prophet ﷺ. The collected Revelations appeared in 651, when the canonical text was compiled. The suras are not arranged in chronological order, but have been preserved unchanged.

The language of the Quran is Arabic: it has many verb forms, it is based on a harmonious word-formation system. Muslims believe that verses have miraculous power only if they are read in Arabic.

If a Muslim does not know Arabic, he can read the translation of the Koran or tafseers: this is the name of the interpretation of the holy book. This will allow you to better understand the meaning of the Book. The interpretation of the Holy Quran can also be read in Russian, but it is still recommended to do this only for familiarization purposes. For a deeper knowledge, it is important to know Arabic.

Surahs from the Quran

The Quran contains 114 surahs. Each (except the ninth) begins with the words: "In the Name of Allah, the Gracious and Merciful." In Arabic, basmala sounds like this: The verses of which the suras are composed, otherwise called revelations: (from 3 to 286). Reading the suras brings many benefits to the believers.

Sura Al-Fatiha, consisting of seven verses, opens the Book. It gives praise to Allah, and also asks for His mercy and help. Al-Baqarah is the longest Surah with 286 verses. It contains the parable of Musa and Ibrohim. Here we can find information about the unity of Allah and the Day of Judgment.

The Qur'an ends with a short sura Al Nas, consisting of 6 verses. This chapter tells about various tempters, the main struggle with which is the pronunciation of the Name of the Most High.

Sura 112 is small in size, but according to the Prophet ﷺ himself, it occupies a third of the Qur'an based on its significance. This is explained by the fact that it has a great meaning: it speaks of the greatness of the Creator.

Transcription of the Quran

Those who are not native Arabic speakers can find translations in their native language using transcription. It is found in various languages. This is a good opportunity to study the Quran in Arabic, but some letters and words are distorted in this way. It is recommended that you first listen to the verse in Arabic: you will learn to pronounce it more accurately. However, this is often considered unacceptable, since the meaning of the verses can change greatly when transcribed into any language. To read the book in the original, you can use the free online service and get the translation in Arabic.

great book

The miracles of the Qur'an, about which much has already been said, truly amaze the imagination. Modern knowledge has made it possible not only to strengthen faith, but now it has become obvious: it was sent down by Allah himself. The words and letters of the Qur'an are based on some kind of mathematical code that goes beyond human capabilities. It encodes future events and natural phenomena.

Much in this sacred book is explained with such accuracy that one involuntarily comes to the idea of ​​its divine appearance. Then people did not yet have the knowledge that they have now. For example, the French scientist Jacques Yves Cousteau made the following discovery: the waters of the Mediterranean and Red Seas do not mix. This fact was also described in the Koran, what was the surprise of Jean-Yves Cousteau when he found out about this.

For Muslims choose names from the Koran. Here were mentioned the names of 25 prophets of Allah and the name of a companion of Muhammad ﷺ - Zeid. The only female name is Maryam, even a sura is named after her.

Muslims use suras and verses from the Koran as prayers. It is the only shrine of Islam and all the rites of Islam are built on the basis of this great book. The Prophet ﷺ said that reading the suras will help in various life situations. The utterance of the sura "ad-Duha" can relieve the fear of the Day of Judgment, and the sura "al-Fatiha" will help in difficulties.

The Quran is filled with divine meaning, it contains the highest revelation of Allah. In the Holy Book you can find answers to many questions, you just have to think about the words and letters. Every Muslim must read the Quran, without knowledge of it it is impossible to perform namaz - an obligatory form of worship for a believer.

The Quran is the holy scripture of the Muslim people. If you learn how to read it correctly, then at the same time you can master the Arabic language.

  2. The main condition is what type of scripture will be studied, since there are differences in them. Many old mentors recommend learning from the Qur'an, which is called Ghazan.

The alphabet has only 28 letters, of which only a few vowels are "alif" and "ey".

It can also make it difficult to understand the language. Since, in addition to letters, there are also sounds: “i”, “un”, “a”, “y”. Also, many letters, depending on which part of the word they are in, are written differently. Many also have problems from the fact that you need to start reading in an unusual way for us from right to left (in Russian and in many others they read the other way around).

Therefore, it causes great inconvenience to many when reading or writing. It is recommended to ensure that the slope of the handwriting is also from right to left. It is difficult to get used to this, but, having studied, you can achieve excellent results.
