I just had to mention that i have completed the Quran and on completion i felt as if i was over the moon. I cannot describe how amazing it felt to complete it and wanted to share it with the brothers / sisters!!!
The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihi wa-sallam) said: "Envy is allowed in two cases, in case of a man whom Allah has given the Qur'aan and who recites it throughout night and day; and a man on whom Allah has bestowed wealth who gives it away throughout night and day." [Saheeh al-Bukharee and Saheeh Muslim] and he (sallallahu alaihi wa-sallam) also explained what may be said: "I wish I were given what he was given and did with it what he did."

25:36 And the true servants of the Most Merciful are those who walk the earth with humility and when the ignorant address them, they respond with words of peace.
I heard the angels come and kiss the servant between the nose when they complete the Quran. I truely felt blessed on completion of the Quran..it was the best feeling i have ever expereinced.
Now learn arabic, because a translation of the Qur'an is not considered the Qur'an. Only the arabic Qur'an is considered the Qur'an.
Surely We have revealed it-- an Arabic Quran-- that you may understand. [12:2]
And verily for everything that a slave loses there is a substitute, but the one who loses Allah will never find anything to replace Him.” [Related by Ibn al-Qayyim in ad-Dâ' wad-Dawâ Fasl 49]
^ huh? lol bro, the OP said he completed Quran, ie read the whole thing
Does an empty plate fill your stomach?
Without knowing what you're reading, what admonition will you recieve in prayer or by it's recitation in general?

of course i agree we should all understand the Quran no doubt but bro i've seen knowledgable brothers who have studied the Quran and learned arabic have LESS a'mal and adhaab/akhlaaq then those who have hardly any knowledge then those who always recite the Quran without understanding and stay doing good deeds.
point being - reading the Quran is good wether understood or not but OF COURSE far better understood
hidaayah is always from Allah... people who have never read the Quran could have amazing admonition and guidance.
Take the example of our beloved prophet sallallahi alaihi wasallaam from way before he became a nabi , he defied the ways of his culture completely and it was natural to him
this is the guidance of Allah due to his pure fitrah

My tears testify that i have a heart
yet i feel me and shaytan never part

Why use the ignorant as an example that the arabic language should be taken lightly?
Al-Imaam Ash-Shaafi’i said: “People didn’t become ignorant and didn’t differ amongst themselves except because they left Arabic and leaned towards the language of Aristotle.” [Quoted by As-Suyuti in Sawn Al-Mantiq p15.]

Congratulations. May you complete the Qur'an many times over, inshaAllah .
‘Say: If the ocean were ink wherewith to write out the words of my Lord, sooner would the ocean be exhausted, even if We added another ocean like it.’~Al Qu'raan (18:109)
I'm happy for you. I have my favorite hadeeth handy so I'll share it with you:
Abu Malik al-Harith ibn 'Asim al-Ash'ari reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Purity is half of belief. 'Praise be to Allah' fills up the balance, and 'Glory be to Allah and praise be to Allah' fills up everything between the heavens and the earth. The prayer is a light. Sadaqa is a proof. Steadfastness is an illumination. The Qur'an is a proof for you or against you. Everybody goes out and trades with his own self, either seting it free or destroying it." [Muslim]
