Be an orange

[Reflections]

AsSaalaamu Aalaykum WarahmatAllah Wabarakatuh


Be an orange
“The example of a believer, who recites the Qur’an and acts on it, is like an orange (utrujjah) which tastes nice and smells nice.

And the example of the believer who does not recite the Qur’an but acts on it is like a date that tastes sweet but has no smell.

And the example of the hypocrite who recites the Quran is like a sweet basil which smells good but tastes bitter.

And the example of a hypocrite who does not recite the Qur’an is like a colocynth (bitter apple) which tastes bitter and has a bad smell.”

[Allah’s Messenger (صلي الله عليه وسلم), reported in Saheeh al-Bukhari]
