QURAN WITH ENGLISH TRANSLATION

The Holy Quran is the 4th and Last Sacred Book of Allah SWT that He revealed upon His Last Messenger, Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ in the early 7th century A.D. It not only approves the previous Heavenly Manuscripts of the Almighty and His Prophets, but also provides a complete guideline for living a successful life here and in the hereafter. Muslims all over the world recite and understand this Sanctified Scripture as a religious duty and seek assistance from it. The Creator of the world of the worlds says regarding the matter of understanding the Instructions present in Furqan e Hameed as:

recite quran

“So when the Qur’an is recited, then listen to it and pay attention that you may receive mercy.” [Quran, 7: 204]

The Holy Quran was first disclosed in the land of Arabia and its official language too is Arabic, but still God, the Exalted has emphasized on listening to its recitation closely in order to comprehend its true connotation. If the native Arabians were directed to do so, it means that those who do not know this mode of communication better, they are even more required to translate its teachings into their local speech to absorb it better.

Although, the plain recital might well lead to obtaining some benefits in terms of Allah`s Remembrance and seeking His forgiveness, but that is only possible when someone has already read or understood some of the essential teachings of Furqan e Hameed before. In case of new learners, it is only likely to get some advantage out of narration of this Consecrated Paperback when it is done in a language that it can easily understand.

Some of the great benefits of reading the Holy Quran with Translation (Understanding) are as follows:

More Reward For Non Arabic Natives

If this Revered Volume of Allah SWT was just meant for plain recitation without understanding it, then it would not be possible for the rest of the world to realize its actual connotation. There is a great reward for reading the Holy Quran especially in case of Arabic being a foreign language, as it ultimately leads to attainment of Knowledge of the commandments of the Almighty Lord.

Hazrat Abdullah ibn Ma’sood (R.A) narrates that Rasulullah ﷺsaid:

“Those who attempt to read it with difficulty (because of their lack of familiarity with the language) will merit double rewards.” (Tirmidhi and Abu Dawood)

The above mentioned Hadith tells about tremendous amount of returns in the form of blessings of Allah SWT as a result of having difficulty in the Quranic recital. It means that those who do not understand the Arabic language, yet they strive hard to learn about teachings of Furqan e Hameed, it will be considered a bigger effort for sake of pleasing the Gracious God.

In-Depth Reading Leading To More Understanding

It is common observation in any field of studies that comprehensive analysis of things leads to better understanding of the complex matters and concepts involved under consideration. Arabic too is a very intricate and hard to grasp lingo that calls for translation of the Holy Verses of Quran into some native language in order to be aware of them properly.

Hazrat Abu Sa’eed Khudri (R.A) narrates that Rasulullah PBUH said:

Knowing About Matters Concerning Daily Life.
