[Ep 9] Allah Is Speaking To You | Sh. Suleiman Hani #Ramadan2023
The Importance of the Quran
This section emphasizes the importance of the Quran and how it should be valued and cherished.
Valuing Messages from Respected Individuals
- If a message is received from someone who is loved and respected, it would be valued, pondered upon, and cherished.
- An example is given of a friend who received a video message from a famous scholar. He downloaded it to his device, backed it up on two other devices, and shared it with family and friends.
- The Quran is not just any message but rather a comprehensive one that changes an individual's entire life by providing guidance about why they exist, what they should be doing, and what's to come when they die.
The Quran as Correspondence from Allah
- The Companions considered the Quran to be correspondence from their Lord. They would ponder it at night and act upon it by day.
- If this statement was for the generation of the earliest Muslims in the second century, then what about us in our times?
Reflecting on Allah's Address in the Quran
- Reflecting on Allah's address in the Quran reveals that He is completely knowledgeable of what rests inside the souls of His servants.
- Alone He manages His kingdom; He hears and sees; gives and withholds rewards; punishes; honors and humiliates; creates and provides; takes life and gives it; portions out things according to His plan.
Loving Allah's Speech
- Musa used to hold his staff with incredible love because he loved talking to Allah.
- We have 114 letters from Allah, and sometimes we read the Quran while forgetting who the speaker is on the other end.
Practical Action Items
- Pay attention to how your attention is when you read the Quran.
- Share in the comments below where you are right now in terms of paying attention to the Quran and inspire others to get better by consistently reading it throughout the year.
