Ramadan Challenge: Chapter #9 – Attentiveness

Written by: Barah

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

I can’t help but pick this verse every time I read this chapter. It is so important. How many times do we find ourselves talking when there is Qur’an being recited, be it at the mosque or at home? The Book needs to always be respected, and when it’s being read, we must be quiet and listen to it, not speak as it’s being recited. Give it the respect it deserves.
