AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): A Shia source of emulation in the holy city of Qom says recitation of the Quran is not enough and there is a need for thinking deeper about the blessed verses.
Ayatollah Seyyed Mohammad Ali Alavi-Gorgani made the remarks in a meeting with a number of officials from Awqaf organization.
He referred to verse 29 of Surah Sad which reads “It is a blessed Book which We have revealed for you so that you will reflect upon its verses and so the people of understanding will take heed.”
The “blessed” book means that the Quran is a healing for all pains of humans and can solve all problems if we carry out its instructions, said Alavi-Gorgani.
The Quran should be the main criterion and standard for spreading Islam, he added.
The verse also points to the issue of reflecting upon the Quran’s content because recitation alone cannot bring full advantages, the marja said, adding, if we strive for understanding the Quran and the true meaning of life, we can achieve felicity.
Reference to the “people of understanding” in the verse means that not all people accept prophets’ and preachers’ calls while the latter may also be targeted with insults or even killed, he noted….
