From “40 Hadith on the Qur’ān: Principles for the Bearer of the Qur’ān”

قال: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، مَوْلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عِمْرَانُ أَبُو الْعَوَّامِ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ، عَنْ وَاثِلَةَ بْنِ الْأَسْقَعِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ:أُنْزِلَتْ صُحُفُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فِي أَوَّلِ لَيْلَةٍ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ، وَأُنْزِلَتِ التَّوْرَاةُ لِسِتٍّ مَضَيْنَ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ، وَالْإِنْجِيلُ لِثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ خَلَتْ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ، وَأُنْزِلَ الْفُرْقَانُ  لِأَرْبَعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ خَلَتْ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ

Wathila ibn al-Asqa’ reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said;

“The Suhuf (scrolls) of Ibrahim were revealed on the first night of Ramadhan, the Torah on the sixth of Ramadhan,  The Injeel (Gospel) on the thirteenth of Ramadhan, and the Furqan (Qur’ān) on the twenty-fourth of Ramadhan.”

In Mu’jam al-Awsat by Tabrani no. 3740, there is an additional sentence, “…and the Zabur (what was revealed on Prophet Dawud) on the eighteenth of Ramadhan…”.

قال: حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرٌو، أَنَّ أَبَا سَوِيَّةَ، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ، سَمِعَ ابْنَ حُجَيْرَةَ، يُخْبِرُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ‏مَنْ قَامَ بِعَشْرِ آيَاتٍ لَمْ يُكْتَبْ مِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ وَمَنْ قَامَ بِمِائَةِ آيَةٍ كُتِبَ مِنَ الْقَانِتِينَ وَمَنْ قَامَ بِأَلْفِ آيَةٍ كُتِبَ مِنَ الْمُقَنْطَرِينَ

Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said;

“If anyone prays at night reciting ten Ayat, he will not be recorded among the negligent (ghafileen); if anyone prays at night and recites a hundred Ayat, he will be recorded among those who are devout (qaniteen) to Allah; and if anyone prays at night reciting one thousand Ayat, he will be [recorded amongst those who] receive an immeasurable amount of reward.”

قال: أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، حدثنا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُوسَى الْقَاضِي، حدثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الهسِّنْجَانِيُّ، حدثنا أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، وَهَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَا: حدثنا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنِ يحيى بْنِ أَيُّوبَ، عَنِ زَبَّانِ بْنِ فَائِدٍ، عَنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ مُعَاذِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ:مَنْ قَرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ وَعَمِلَ بِمَا فِيهِ أُلْبِسَ وَالِدَاهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ تَاجًا، ضَوْءُهُ أَحْسَنُ مِنْ ضَوْءِ الشَّمْسِ فِي بُيُوتِ الدُّنْيَا لَوْ كَانَتْ فِيهِ، فَمَا ظَنُّكُمْ بِالَّذِي عَمِلَ بِهِ؟

The father of Abdullah ibn Burayda al-Aslami رضي الله عنه reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said;

“Whoever recited the Qur’ān and acted according to it; on the Day of Judgment his parents will be given to wear a crown whose light is better than the light of the sun in the dwellings of this world if it were among you. So what do you think of him who acts according to this?”

مَنْ تَدَّبَرُ القُرْآنَ طَالِبًا الـهُدَى مِنْهُ ، تُبْيـَنُ لَهُ طَرِيقَ الـحَقِ

Ibn Taymiyyah said, “Whoever contemplates (tadabbur) upon the Qur’ān (with the condition) of seeking guidance from it, (then) the path of truth will be made clear for him.”

[64]Aqeedah al-Wasityah by Ibn Taymiyyah. Sufyan ibn Uyaynah said, “The beginning of knowledge is to (firstly) listen, then understand, then memorise, then act upon, then spread to others. When a slave (of Allah) listens to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah with an honest and sincerely true intention upon that which Allah loves, then he will understand… and He will enter light into his heart.” Tafsir Qurtubi

قال: أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ الْفَارِسِيُّ، حدثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ قُرَيْشٍ، حدثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، حدثنا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حدثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:  الْبَيْتُ الَّذِي يُقْرَأُ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنُ يَتَرَائى لِأَهْلِ السَّمَاءِ، كَمَا تَتَرَائَى النُّجُومُ لِأَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ
