﴿قَالَ كَلَّا ۖ إِنَّ مَعِيَ رَبِّي سَيَهْدِينِ﴾
He said, “No! Indeed, with me is my Lord; He will guide me.”
[Surah Ash-Shu‘ara, 26:62]
الواثقون كلَّما ضاق عليهم خِناقُ البلاء انفتحت أمامهم أبوابُ الرجاء، فأيقنوا بقُرب الفرَج ودنوِّ المخرَج!
Those who trust (in Allah) — whenever the grip of affliction tightens around them, the doors of hope open before them. So they become certain that relief is near and that a way out is close!
When the Qur'an reaches the heart, it doesn't just enter it overwhelms.
This is not just recitation... it's the soul remembering its origin.

“He is not one of us who does not Beautify his voice (with) the Qur’an."
Meaning :
The phrase “يتغنّى بالقرآن” has been interpreted by scholars in different ways. The most well-known opinions include:
He beautifies his voice when reciting the Qur’an:
Meaning, he recites it with a beautiful voice and proper melody. This is the most widely accepted interpretation.
He finds sufficiency in it:
That is, he treats the Qur’an as sufficient for him and doesn’t turn to music or other forms of entertainment.
He finds pleasure and spiritual ecstasy in it:
Meaning, he enjoys the Qur’an and his heart is moved by it — similar to how some people are emotionally moved by music.
The Prophet ﷺ encourages believers to beautify their voices when reciting the Qur’an, because doing so affects the hearts and increases reverence and humility.
This does not mean imitating forbidden musical styles. Rather, it means reciting the Qur’an with proper tajwīd, rhythm, and emotional presence, as is fitting for the words of Allah.

لا تيأس من روح الله مهما اشتد البلاء والمحن
الذي يياس من روح الله عبد لا يعرف الله
"Whoever despairs of the mercy of Allah is a servant who does not know Allah.
الامور ترجع الى الله والمقادير بيدالله وعاقبة الامر الى الله ولله العاقبة الامور
All matters return to Allah, destinies are in Allah's hands, and the outcome of all affairs is to Allah. And to Allah belongs the final outcome of all matters."

The cure of Hearts.
One of the means of purifying the heart, being affected by the Qur'an, and truly benefiting from it is:
Listening to a reciter whose voice you love, with the intention of receiving the Qur'an and being guided by it.
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked Ibn Mas‘ud to recite to him, saying:
"I love to hear it from someone else."
So Ibn Mas‘ud recited from Surah An-Nisa, until the Prophet’s ﷺ eyes were filled with tears.
The Prophet ﷺ was amazed by the recitation of Abu Musa al-Ash‘ari and praised him saying:
"You have been given a flute (voice) from the flutes of the family of Dawud (David)."
And he rejoiced at the recitation of Salim, the freed slave of Abu Hudhayfah, saying:
"Praise be to Allah who made someone like him in my Ummah."
A suggested way to receive and be guided by the Qur’an:
Play a Qur’an recitation by a reciter whose voice moves your heart,
while keeping your phone away, or muting its notifications.
Then make intention to listen with four specific goals:
To seek guidance from the Qur’an
(Focus your mind and heart on what you're hearing in order to reflect and be guided.)
To purify your heart
For nothing is better for the heart than reflecting on the Qur'an, as Ibn al-Qayyim said.
To expose yourself to the mercy of Allah
As Allah says:
"So when the Qur’an is recited, listen to it and remain silent that you may receive mercy." (Al-A‘raf 204)
To follow the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ
who asked to hear the Qur’an from Ibn Mas‘ud رضي الله عنه.
From the signs of Allah’s tawfiq (divine success) is that you set aside time in your schedule—especially in sacred seasons like the Ashhur al-Hurum (sacred months)—to listen to the Qur’an with the intention of receiving and being guided by it.
You will be amazed by the divine breezes, and the Qur’an will touch your heart,
acting like medicine reaching the very source of the pain.

تفاءلوا فكلُّ بَلاءٍ دونَ النّارِ عافية، وكُلُّ ضيقٍ دونَ القَبْرِ سَعَةٍ، وكُلُّ ذَنْبٍ دونَ الشِّرْكِ مَغْفُورٍ، حَتَّى لَوْ لَم تَرَ جَمالَ المصائب، فكلُّ ما قَدَّرَهُ الجَليلُ هُوَ جميل.
“Be optimistic, for every affliction less than Hellfire is well-being, and every hardship less than the grave is ease, and every sin short of shirk (associating partners with Allah) is forgivable. Even if you do not see the beauty in tribulations, know that everything decreed by the Most Glorious is beautiful.”

Etiquette of Quran Recitation
The person reciting the Holy Qur’an should sit for recitation in a state of complete purity, with clean clothes, perfumed, having used the miswak, calm, humble, and modest.
He should be mindful of the greatness of Allah Almighty, reflect deeply on the meanings of the Qur’an, and be emotionally affected by its verses and rulings. As Allah says:
“The believers are only those who, when Allah is mentioned, their hearts tremble, and when His verses are recited to them, it increases them in faith, and upon their Lord they rely.” [Al-Anfal: 2]
The Qur’an reciter should also exemplify good manners, dignity, and respect.
He should recite the Qur’an in a measured and melodious manner (with tarteel and tajweed), giving each letter its due right and characteristics—such as correct pronunciation, articulation points, elongations (madd), nasalizations (ghunnah), and other rules of tajweed—hoping for Allah’s acceptance of his recitation and seeking His Paradise and pleasure.
