The Qur'an is Allah's greatest gift to mankind. It is the eternal book of guidance and eternal wisdom. It is a cure for every disease both spritual or physical. It is a light which illuminates the path of truth amidst the darkness of falsehood.

Along with recitation, allocate time for memorizing , reviewing memorization,learning the meanings and reflecting on the Qur'an. Bring the Qur'an alive into your day have minimum of at least one thing you will act upon based on what you recited in the day.
