As-salamu alaykum wa rahmotu Llah wa barakatuhu.

Al-Quran is no doubt Allah's book. It is a guide,a healer and blessing to all of us. Verses confirming its purity and sanctity are numerous. We read it daily,on obligatory prayers,on our private prayers,on delivering sermons. We also read it as a form dhikr,Allah's remembrance. However,reading it helps us in the following ways:
1) It illuminate our souls. It takes us away from darkness into light.
2)It raises our awareness of what Allah enjoins on us. We know dos and donts required of us.
3) We judge whatever we are passing through from the stories of the prophets illustrated therein. This helps us to know whatever happened to us actually happened to people of yore.
4) It entrenches our taqwa. It raises us on fear of Allah and direct our actions to Allah alone.
5) It tells us the temporal benefit of our lives and the ever consequence of whatever good or bad deeds we do here.
6) It tells us to submit totally to Allah and it gives us precedents of those who disobey Him as to what happened to them.
So,my brothers and sisters,how do we read Qur'an?
Mere reading the Qur'an has rewards but it may not reinforce your faith as expected. Thus,it is good for u to have the knowledge to read and understand it. How do we go about it? What are the tools we need?
TOOLS.
1) Our pure intention
2) Piety
3) A Qur'an for those who are well versed in Arabic language or Arabic and English Qur'an for those of us who don't understand Arabic language.
4) A clean and noise free environment.,and
5) The thought that it is a rewardable work.

( To be continued.
Looking Forward: Next,we will be talking of how to read Qur'an to gain maximum benefits,how to adapt it to our private prayers.)
