The Holy Qur'an is a special book that reveals the words of Allah(SWT). Allah is the arabic name for God.The Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him)over a period of 23 years. The beginning of this revelation was sent down by Allah to Prophet Muhammad(Peace Be Upon Him), his last messenger, through angel Jibraeel A.S ( arabic for Gabriel) on the night of Laylatul-Qadr (The night of power). It deals with everything that concerns Mankind. But mostly emphasizes the relations between Allah and his creatures. Muslims believe that the Quran provides teachings, guidance, and good direction for mankind. The Holy Qur'an always has answers to your questions. Note that the Qur'an was only sent down in Arabic, which means that translations to any other language is not the actual Quran but merely an interpretation of it in that particular language.
Steps
- Purify yourself. Get the purity of body, clothes, and place. Make sure that these are free from filth. For purity of body, you have to take a ghusl, (shower), Wudhu(ablution) or Tayammum.
A'udhu Billahi Minash Shaytaanir Rajeem,
I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the cursed.
- Then Recite Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim'In the Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful.
- Gently open the Holy Qur'an by using your right hand.
- While you read the Holy Qur'an, you should have the presence of your heart.This means that you are not just looking at the words but you are bringing them into your mind and understanding what you are reading.
May Allah Make keep all of our intentions pure and soley for the sake of his pleasure
So that we gain rewards and good deeds from it. Ameen
