Reading Quran whenever possible


Surah Muzammil

73:20
Surely your Lord knows that you pass in prayer nearly two-thirds of the night, and (sometimes) half of it, and (sometimes) a third of it, and (also) a party of those with you; and Allah measures the night and the day. He knows that you are not able to do it, so He has turned to you (mercifully), therefore read what is easy of the Quran. He knows that there must be among you sick, and others who travel in the land seeking of the bounty of Allah, and others who fight in Allah's way, therefore read as much of it as is easy (to you), and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate and offer to Allah a goodly gift, and whatever of good you send on beforehand for yourselves, you will find it with Allah; that is best and greatest in reward; and ask forgiveness of Allah; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.


Quran reading for every single Muslim is an individual experience.Quran reading for Prophet S. and his companions (Sahaba) was as much as understanding it, at the same time, because it was/is in their language. It should not be taken simply that reading means, reading only! For those whom first language is not Arabic , must seek for meanings of every verse they read.It's only fair!
