درگاه‌ها


Memorizing the Quran has numerous effects and blessings, including: companionship with angels; being among the elite and great of the Ummah; safety from divine punishment; forgiveness of sins; double reward; attaining the status of intercession; heavenly ranks; a reward similar to that of prophets; guidance; and strengthening memory.

Memorizing the Quran as a Divine Blessing

The Quran is the greatest and highest gift from God to humanity, and its memorization is one of the divine blessings that not everyone will achieve. Continuous recitation and memorization of the Quran are factors for many divine blessings and successes, and whoever habitually recites, memorizes, and reflects on the Quranic concepts will not forget them.[۱]

Effects and Blessings of Memorizing the Holy Quran

Memorizing the Quran has effects and blessings, some of which are mentioned below.

  • Companionship with Angels: Companionship with Angels is considered one of the otherworldly effects of memorizing the Holy Quran. Imam Sadiq (AS) says: «The memorizer of the Quran who acts upon it will be in the company of the messenger and righteous angels.»[۲]
  • Elite and Great of the Ummah: Imam Sadiq (AS) stated that the memorizer of the Quran will be among the great of the Ummah: «The elite and great of my Ummah are the reciters, memorizers, and those who spend their nights in worship.»[۳]
  • Safety from Divine Punishment: There are promises in narrations regarding safety from divine punishment for memorizers of the Quran. Amir al-Mu'minin (AS) says: «Recite the Quran and memorize it, for Allah the Almighty will not punish a heart in which the Quran resides.»[۴]
  • Forgiveness of Sins: Being included in divine forgiveness is another property and effect of memorizing the Quran, which is mentioned in a narration from the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH): «Whoever recites the Quran from memory and thinks that Allah the Almighty will not forgive him, is among those who mock the divine verses.»[۵]
  • Double Reward: A double reward is also mentioned for those who strive to memorize the Quran. Imam Sadiq (AS) said: «Whoever strives to learn the Quran and memorizes it with difficulty due to poor memory will have two rewards.»[۶]
  • Attaining the Status of Intercession: The acceptance of the intercession of the Quran memorizer for his family members is one of the promises given to these individuals. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said: «Whoever recites the Quran (enough) to memorize it, Allah will admit him to Paradise and accept his intercession for ten members of his family upon whom Hellfire was decreed.»[۷]
  • Heavenly Ranks: Enjoying the highest ranks of Paradise is another otherworldly promise for memorizers of the Quran. It is narrated from the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH): «The ranks of Paradise are equal to the number of verses of the Quran. When the companion of the Quran enters Paradise, he will be told to recite and ascend, for each verse is a rank. So there is no rank higher than that of the memorizer of the Quran.»[۸]
  • A Reward Similar to that of Prophets: It is said that memorizers of the Quran earn a reward similar to that of the prophets. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said to Salman al-Farsi: «O Salman,... indeed, after the prophets, the best servants to Allah are the scholars, and then the reciters and memorizers of the Quran. They depart from this world like the prophets, they are resurrected from their graves with them, they cross the Sirat alongside them, and they receive their reward (from Allah).»[۹]
  • Guidance: Imam Ali (AS) says: «»[۱۰]
  • Strengthening Memory: One of the advantages of memorizing the Holy Quran is the strengthening of memory during the memorization process, which is mentioned in narrations.[۱۱] [۱۲] Since memorizing this heavenly book depends on continuous repetition and frequent recitation, memorizing the Quran will naturally strengthen memory itself.[۱۳]
