The Holy Qur’an

The Regular Recital of the Holy Qur’an

The following is the Complaint that will be made to God on the

Day of the Final Judgment.

يَا رَبِّ إِنَّ قَوْمِي اتَّخَذُوا هَٰذَا الْقُرْآنَ مَهْجُورًا

“‘O’ my Lord! Verily my people had taken this Qur’an as a forsaken thing” (Holy Qur’an 25:30).

Let us not be of those convicted of the above charge.

What The Recital Of The Holy Quran Would Bring To You

An intelligent Recital of this Holy Book will create, re-affirm and

re-enforce faith in the All-Merciful and the All-Mighty Lord and turn your life on earth

holy and heavenly and will not only earn the divine blessings for you

but will turn yourself, a blessing to the world.

By reciting regularly even three or four pages daily, you will complete

the whole Book and know at least the external meaning of the contents and thus

have at least the minimum blessings it offers to

humanity for all times until the Day of Judgment.

Be It Known

that the Holy Prophet Muhammad is the Apostle and the

Holy Qur’an is the All Truth which all the Ancient Apostles of God particularly the

Holy Prophet Jesus prophesied, saying:

“Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away for if I go not away the ‘Comforter’(a) will not come” John 16/7

“But for the Comforter’(a) which is the Holy Ghost(a)” John 14/26

“I have many things to say unto you but ye cannot bear them now”

“Howbeit when the Spirit of Truths is come for, He will guide

you into All Truths(b) for he shall not speak of himself but whatsoever

he shall hear and will shew you things to come” John 16/12-13

****

(a) The Holy Prophet Muhammad

(b) the Holy Qur’an

The Holy Qur’an

can be had only from

the

Holy Ahl Al-Bayt

for

said the Holy Prophet who spoke nothing

but the revelation from God

first know, remember and keep in view the declaration of the Holy Prophet:

قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم: إني تارك فيكم الثقلين كتاب الله وعترتي أهل بيتي فإنهما لن يفترقا حتى يردا علي الحوض.

‘Verily I leave amidst you the Two Weighty (important) things, the Book of God (the Qur’an) and my Itrat, Ahl Al-Bayt. If ye hold fast to these Two, never will ye get astray’, never will these Two be separated from each other, until they both return unto me at the Cistern (of’ Kawthar’)’1

Why

After

The Holy Prophet Muhammad

for correct knowledge of the external

and the internal meaning of the Final

Word of God, the Holy Qur’an,

one should turn only

To

Amir al-Mu’minin Ali Ibn Abi Talib

For

The Holy Prophet has Declared:

“Innal Qur’an Onzila Ala Sab’atu Ahrofin Ma Minha

Harfon Illa Walahu Zaahiron Wa Batanon

Wa Inna Ali Ibn Abi Talib,

Indahu Minho Zaahiro Wal Batin”

i.e. Verily the Holy Qur’an has been revealed on Seven Letters of which there is no letter2 which has not a manifest and a latent meaning - And Verily Ali Ibn Abi Talib, with him is the Manifest and the Latent (of it)3.

Therefore

If one sincerely desires to know the true, external as well as the internal

meaning

of

The Final Word Of God,

One Must

Accept only that which one can get from

Amir Al-Mu’minin Ali Ibn Abi Talib

Besides,

To have anything of the knowledge from the Holy Prophet - The only Medium, is Ali Ibn Abi Talib - for has declared the Holy Prophet:

أنا مدينة العلم و عليّ بابها

‘Ana Madinat ul-‘Ilm, wa Aliyun Babuha’

I am the City of knowledge, and Ali is its Gate.4
