As the holy month of Ramadan approaches, Muslims all around the world are preparing themselves for a month-long period of fasting, prayer, and reflection. One of the most significant practices during this month is the recitation of the Quran.
Muslims believe that the Quran is the word of God revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and serves as a guide for all humanity. Reciting the Quran during Ramadan is considered to be a particularly auspicious and rewarding act.
Many Muslims strive to complete the recitation of the entire Quran during Ramadan through daily readings called “Taraweeh.” This involves reciting a portion of the Quran after the Isha (night) prayer, typically in congregation at the mosque.
But even if someone cannot complete the entire Quran, reciting any portion of it during Ramadan is considered to be a virtuous act. Muslims believe that the rewards for reciting the Quran during Ramadan are multiplied, and the recitation brings immense spiritual benefits.
As Muslims prepare for the holy month of Ramadan, they focus on their connection with God, and the recitation of the Quran is an essential part of this spiritual journey. So, whether one is completing the entire Quran or reading small portions of it, the recitation of the Quran during Ramadan is an act of faith, devotion, and worship that brings immense blessings and benefits.
