Salamualikum.

In a way i did, the shadah was recited and i repeated it. Although later by i did get presents of Qura'an audio's and Cd's which i still have Masha'Allaah. My first reciation audio was Qari-Basit by my Aalimah. I was delighted to listen to the sound of the way the Qari was reciting. Firstly i never took any notice of it and rather sit down and struggle to understand what has being said and at times i used to ponder and stress over why i wasn't a born Muslim first. Gradually when i got taught how to perform wu'dhu and read my salah thats the time when it really got to me and how i come form such a state to become a Muslim. Subhan'Allaah it was like a dream for me. When i first touched the Qura'an and saw the text inside i was surprised in seeing all the words and found it hard to believe i was a Muslim. It came to a standard where a friend of mine gave me an english translation Qura'an and thats when i got really deep into qura'an and started loosing music and everything which was useless. Alhamdulilah now i can NEVER give up listning to Qura'an or reciting it! ''WiThOuT qUrA'aN tHeReZ nOtHiNg,QuRa'An Iz, Ma LyF, Da WiZdOm Of Da QuRa'An,OnE wOrLd Of WiZdOm''

Now that im becoming an Aalimah and a huffaz the arabic words and english meaning of the Qura'an has affect vast amount of me. Im proud to be a Muslim and to have the oppoutunity to become an Aalimah and a huffaz.

, Sometime i say to my self i don't deserve this at all... there's more people out there who deserve all this.

May Allaah guide us. Amin

Ma'assalama

I didnt listen to recitations before I reverted, although I did read the Quran in book form. Actually, I wasnt familiar at all with any recitations until after I reverted and started to learn about Islam.

salaam alaykum,
for me this option is true

"yes, i've listen to the Quran and it affected me in its arabic words"

however I was not affected by the Arabic words as I didn't understand Arabic. I was more affected by the tone, I guess. Don't know how else to say it.
