importance of understanding quran – By which Allah guides those who pursue His pleasure to
the ways of peace and brings them out from darkness
into the light, by His permission, and guides them to a
straight path.

Allah’s Chosen Ones!
From Anas ibn Malik who said that Allah’s Messenger
(sas) said: Verily Allah has his family members among
people. They said: And who are they, O Messenger of
Allah? He (sas) said: They are the people of the Qur’an
the people of Allah and his select ones.

What does the Quran Talk about?
We have certainly sent down to you a Book in which
is your mention. Then will you not reason?
(Al-Anbiya 21:10)

Say, “Are those who know equal to those who do not
know?” Only
they will remember [who are] people of understanding.
The Book of Quran Does
not Throw its
Gems at Everyone!
Amongst People of the Book
are The Illiterate !
And among them are unlettered ones who do not
know the Scripture except in wishful thinking,
but they are only assuming.

[This is] a blessed Book which We have revealed to you,
[O, Muhammad], that they might reflect upon its verses and
that those of
understanding would be reminded.
Quran Addresses the
Intellect “But none will grasp the message except the men
of intellect.” (Quran 2:269)

He gives wisdom to whom He wills, and whoever has
been given wisdom has certainly been given much good. And none
will remember except those of understanding.
What Allah Wants from us?

Reasoning!
Indeed, the worst of living creatures in the sight
of Allah are the deaf and dumb who do not use
reason. 8:22

Active Engagement!
And do not be like those who say, “We
have heard,” while they do not hear. 8:22

Then do they not reflect upon the Qur’an, or are there
locks upon [their]
hearts? Presence of Heart
Indeed in that is a reminder for whoever has a heart or
who listens while he is present [in mind].
25:30

Are we One of them?
The Illiterate?
The Living Dead?
The Seeing Blind…
The Hearing Deaf…
The Speaking Dumb…

CONSEQUENCES OF TURNING AWAY FROM
QURAN

Do Not Wish to be testified
against on the Day of Judgment !

And the Messenger has said, “O my Lord, indeed
my people have taken this Qur’an as [a thing]
abandoned.”

•  Thus, [O Muhammad], We relate to you from the news of what has
preceded. And We have certainly given you from Us the Qur’an.
•  Whoever turns away from it – then indeed, he will bear on the Day of
Resurrection a burden, [Abiding] eternally therein, and evil it is for
them on the Day of Resurrection as a load –
And whoever turns away from My remembrance –
indeed, he will have a depressed life, and We will
gather him on the Day of Resurrection blind.”
He will say, “My Lord, why have you raised me
blind while I was [once] seeing?”
[ Allah ] will say, “Thus did Our signs come to
you, and you forgot them; and thus will you this
Day be forgotten.”
And thus do We recompense he who transgressed and did
not believe in the signs of his Lord. And the punishment of
the Hereafter is more severe and more enduring.
