Obligations Muslim Owe to Quran

"The most superior (the best) among you (Muslims) are those who learn Quran and teach it to others."

[Sahih Bukhari: Volume 6, Book 61, Number 545]


Musalmanon per Qur’an-e-Majeed kay Huqooq by Dr Irsar Ahmed is an impassioned call to the Muslims "to return to the Qur’an," to rededicate themselves to its study, and make it the sole guide for their lives.


What Does the Qur’an Demand from its Followers?

Instead of making a presumptuous attempt at describing its unique merits, the most pertinent thing for us to do is that we should clearly understand our duties and responsibilities towards the Qur’an and then see whether or not we are conscientiously fulfilling these duties and responsibilities.


If we find that we are not doing so, we should seriously think about the line of action we should adopt for their fulfillment; and then adopt the line without any further delay, because our very salvation depends on our efforts in this direction. Paying pompous compliments to the Qur’an will not be enough and it cannot be a substitute for actually discharging our obligations towards the Holy Book.

Now what are these obligations? Or, in other words, what does the Qur’an demand of us?

The Qur’an makes five demands of every Muslim. Put in a simple language, these demands are as follows:

A Muslim is required:
• to believe in the Qur’an;
• to read it;
• to understand it;
• to act upon its teachings; and
• to convey its message and teachings to others.

I conclude my discourse with the following prayer which is generally offered on completing the recitation of the whole Qur’an but which, I believe, should frequently be offered so that Almighty Allah (SWT) may grant us strength to fulfill the duties we owe to His Book.


O my Lord! Be merciful to us because of (our link with) the Qur’an; make it for us a leader, (and a source of) light, guidance, and mercy, cause us to recall from it what we have failed to understand; give us strength to recite it day and night; and make it a plea for our salvation, O Lord of the worlds.


Ameen!
