Amongst the greatest acts by which the servant can draw near
Allåh, is by abundant recitation of the Qur'ån and listening to it with
meditation, consideration and understanding.

Khabäb bin Al-Arätt said to a man, "Draw near Alläh as much as you
can, and be aware that you will not draw near Him by anything which
He loves more than His Words.

'Uthmån (may Alläh be pleased with him) said, "If your hearts
were pure, they would never be satiated from hearing Alläh's words
Ibn Mas'üd said, 'The one Who loves the Qur'ån loves Allåh
and His Messenger."
