The Main Goal of the Qur’an

Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya Sadat As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Dastur Mawlana Sheikh Abdullah Faiz Daghestani, Sheikh Nazim al-Haqqani.

Our Holy Prophet ﷺ says,

The one who learns and teaches the Qur’an is the best amongst you. People of old times used to start teaching Qur’an at an early age. They call it nursery now. Before, nursery meant teaching Qur’an. They would teach the students letters first and then reading the Qur’an. As our Holy Prophet ﷺ said that this is the best thing, everyone wanted to do this.

Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan is the greatest knowledge and the greatest goodness from all perspectives. You should study it and teach it well. Otherwise, some people teach it, but teach it wrongly. And instead of doing goodness, it turns out as badness to people. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

Therefore, a person on the way of truth should teach it while his students are young. Even if they are not young but grown up, he should teach it together with its main goal. He must know what Muslims believe in, what the Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan teaches and what Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla orders. First of all, he must know what Adab is. The main goal is Adab, to make people with Adab.

The goal of the Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan is as our Holy Prophet ﷺ said, – “Allah ﷻ made me with Adab, and this is the best Adab.” To learn the Qur’an and act without Adab means you learnt nothing. This is very important, because shaytan knows all of the Qur’an; he knows Torah, Bible and Zabur. He knows all of them. But because he doesn’t have Adab, he went against Allah ﷻ and didn’t obey the orders, and there was no benefit. There are many people like this who say that they are Hafiz, who say that they know the Qur’an and mislead people.

They must know their creed, what should be done and what is good so that it brings benefit. Otherwise, the Qur’an curses those who teach it wrongly. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ make us from those who teach good knowledge and teach the beautiful knowledge of the Qur’an well insha’Allah. This is our intention. There are many people who come for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. Many people are coming to attain this beautiful knowledge. May Allah ﷻ open their minds. May they learn the Qur’an, carry the beauty of the Qur’an and teach others as well insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
