As-Salaam alaikum,
In Ayat 269 of Surat Baqra of the Holy Qur'an (2:269), Allah, Azzah Wa Jallah, says:--
"..And he who is given Wisdom has been given much good."
Sheikh Sahl Ibn Abdullah al-Tustari, may Allah be Merciful to him, was asked about these words and he said:- Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, may Allah be pleased with him, narrated from the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, that he said:--
"The Qur'an is Allah's Wisdom (hikma) among His Servants. Whoever learns the Qur'an and acts
according to it, it is as if Prophethood were incorporated within him, except that he does not recieve
revelation. He is called to account in the same way as Prophets except in the matter of conveying the
message."
And Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, also stated that the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said:-
"The Qur'an is Wisdom, and whoever learns the Qur'an in his youth, it mingles with his flesh and blood.
And surely the Fire cannot touch a heart which contains the Qur'an, nor a body which avoids that which
it prohibits (maharim), and keeps to what it permits (halal), believes in that which is clear in it (muhkam),
refrains from judgement in that which is ambiguous [in it], and does not make innovations regarding it."
I intend to use this year summer holidays learning some key surats insha Allah.
May Allah swt strengthen my memory Ameen.
Pain and hardships allow you to grow spiritually Alhamdulilah so smile when a so called calamity befalls upon you.
