Verily, sometimes our hearts may tend to harden to the
extent of being compared to rocks; ofcourse there is no solution to overcome
such hardness other than reading the Quran. Just as we already know that the
Quran is the greatest miracle of the prophet Muhammad (PBUH) the best way to
recognise such a miracle is by looking at the beauty of the arrangement of its
message as well as it’s poetic nature which has not got any match.
Incase one decides to read a particular poem repeatedly for
a number of times, say twenty times. That person will automatically get a
feeling of tiredness and boredness. But that is not the case with the Quran.
Even though one reads the Quran say ten times, or a hundred times, or even a
thousand times, he/she will never feel bored. The beauty of the Quran is not
the beauty of a moment just like the lyrics of any poem which erode or fade as
time goes on, but rather the beauty of the quran’s language always mesmerises
the mind of its reader and this has always been the case since the day of its
first revelation to the prophet, the same as it is in the currently generation
and the beauty of its message will be the same for the generations that will
come after us.
Whenever we sit down and read the Quran while concentrating
on understanding the message behind its verses, peace and calmness fills our
hearts. Whenever we concentrate on understanding the Quran message, our
thoughts are driven away from the problematic affairs in our lives and as a
result, a dialog is created between us and Allah. It is through this connection
that one can be able to realise the existence of the Supreme Being, Allah. How
weak we are before Him and how great He is in that all that we own, is but a
blessing and gift from Him.
