Motivational tip
If we don’t understand the Qur’an… Our Daily Tarbiyah (training) program designed by Allah is not utilized properly
Daily Tarbiyah Program Allah swt has designed a daily tarbiyah Program for us thru: 6 Lectures in Salah (2 each in Fajr, Maghrib, and Isha; because the Imam reads from Qur’an in them) 6 Lectures in Salah (2 each in Fajr, Maghrib, and Isha; because the Imam reads from Qur’an in them) Personal Recitation of the Qur’an (we should do that everyday!) Personal Recitation of the Qur’an (we should do that everyday!)
Daily Tarbiyah Program How can we do Tabdabbur (ponder) and Tazakkur (receive admonition) if we don’t even understand it.
A Huuuuuge Loss!!! HUGE LOSS, if we don’t understand Qur’an. 365*6 = almost 2000 lectures of Allah lost Live and Relevant guidance (DPPR) is lost Plus whatever we listen in Taraweeh or recite daily is also not understood. Yearly almost 5 to 15 Qur’anic exposures are lost!!!
So… Let us learn the complete Qur’an. Shaitaan will come up with 1000 excuses for you. Be ware and don’t skip any class. It will help us receive LIVE guidance from Allah every day for the rest of our lives.
