• Allah has kept happiness, only in His obedience!
• The quran is the healing of disease in our heart
• Abandoning Quran is abandoning pondering over it, understanding it, using it as a cure to all kinds of diseases of the heart and using other means, taking judgement from it, acting upon it and not just reading it.
• Just believing in the Qur”an is not enough but we need to act upon it.
• We donot want to be among these peoplewho abandon the Quran ♥
• “If you want a heart that is soft, then your source is this blessed book – Al-Qur’an, in this month of Ramadhan.”
• If we follow the Qur’an we will have a safe journey home, (hereafter). In it you have everything to have a great and beautiful life. It is not like any other book as it is the speech of Allah (SWT).

• What are the amazing enefits of being a companion of the quraan in the hereafter.

• There is no middle point. You’re either going to be honored by the Quran or humiliated by it. -Sr. Faria Alam
• We need to spend our time with the relationship of the Qur’an. Sr. Faria Alam
• Spiritual emptiness, spiritual void cannot be filled by anything except by the word of ALLAH, nothing can replace it, poor is the one who has heart which is away from ALLAH and in darkness. Spiritual emptiness is the most painful punishment. Faria Alam

• Transfer the quaan from the mus’haf to the heart
• If you memorise the book of Allah you will have the attribute of the travelling Angels.
• The Qur’an is a remembrance which gives light to our lives – Faria Alam
• “If you want a heart that is soft, then your source is this blessed book – Al-Qur’an, in this month of Ramadhan.”
• “The one who turns away from the remembrance of Allah, they will live a life of hardship, as they are not attached to Allah (swt) so they become attached to something inferior. They start to live in the constrictions of this duniya, rather than the expansiveness of the pleasure of Allah (swt).”
