Lesson No. 1
Virtues of learning the Noble Quran

Whoever recites a letter from the Book of Allah, he will

receive one good deed as ten good deeds like it. I do
not say that alif-laam-meem is one letter, but rather
alif is a letter, Lam is a letter, and meem is a letter.
(Tirmidhi)

One who is proficient in reciting the Qur’an is

associated with the noble, pious (angels) scribes. As for
he who stammers when reciting the Qur’an and find it
difficult for him, he will be granted a double reward.
(Bukhari and Muslim)
