Imam al-Jazari’s praise for the Qur’an bearer‏

Imam al-Jazari’s praise for the Qur’an bearer 

Taken from the Muqaddimah of ‘Tayyibat al-Nashr.’

وبعد: فالإنسان ليس يشرف *** إلا بما يحفظه ويعرف
A person is not honoured or raised
Except by what he knows and has memorised

لذاك كان حاملو القرآن *** أشراف الأمة أولى الإحسان
For that reason the bearers of Qur’an
Are the nobles of this Ummah and its righteous

وإنهم في الناس أهل الله *** وإن ربنا بهم يباهي
And they are the people of Allah amongst Mankind *
And indeed our Lord has boasted of them
وقال في القرآن عنهم وكفى *** بأنه أورثه من اصطفى
He spoke of them in the Qur’an, and it is sufficient
That He gives it (the Qur’an) to those He has chosen **

وهو في الأخرى شافع مشفع *** فيه وفوله عليه يسمع
And in the Hereafter, it is an ardent intercessor
And its statement is something surely heard

يعطى به الملك مع الخلد إذا *** توجه تاج الكرامة كذا
By it a person is given the dominion and immortality
And likewise, he is given the crown of honour

يقرا ويرقى درج الجنان *** وأبواه منه يكسيان
He’ll read and ascend the ranks of Paradise by it
And his parents will also be clothed by it ***

فليحرص السعيد في تحصيله *** ولا يمل قط من ترتيله
So let a person strive to attain it
And let him never tire of its recitation.

* Due to the hadith: ‘Indeed Allah has people from amongst Mankind. The people of Qur’an, they are the people of Allah and His Specialties.’ [Ahmad, Ibn Majah]

** Due to the verse in Soorah Fatir:

ثُمَّ أَوْرَثْنَا الْكِتَابَ الَّذِينَ اصْطَفَيْنَا مِنْ عِبَادِنَا فَمِنْهُمْ ظَالِمٌ لِّنَفْسِهِ وَمِنْهُم مُّقْتَصِدٌ وَمِنْهُمْ سَابِقٌ بِالْخَيْرَاتِ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الْفَضْلُ الْكَبِيرُ

“Then We gave the Book for inheritance to such of Our slaves whom We chose…” [Fatir: 32]

*** Due to the hadith: ‘The Qur’aan will meet its companion on the Day of Resurrection when his grave is opened for him, in the form of a pale man. It will say to him, 

‘Do you recognize me?’ He will say: ‘I do not recognize you.’ It will say: ‘I am your companion the Qur’aan, who kept you thirsty on hot days and kept you awake at night.

 Every merchant benefits from his business and today you will benefit from your good deeds.’ He will be given dominion in his right hand and eternity 

in his left, and there will be placed on his head a crown of dignity, and his parents will be clothed with priceless garments the like of which have 

never been seen in this world. They will say: ‘Why have we been clothed with this?’ It will be said: ‘Because your son used to recite Qur’aan.’ Then it will be said to him: 

‘Recite and ascend in the degrees of Paradise,’ and he will continue to ascend so long as he recites, either at a fast pace or a slow pace.’ [Ahmad, Ibn Majah]

The Most Evil of The People In Relation To Stealing‏

The Noble Shaykh Abdur Razzaaq Ibn Abdil-Muhsin Al-Badr (may Allaah preserve them both) stated:

"Indeed, from the greatest of mistakes, which some of those who pray fall into, is abandoning being in the state of ease in the Salaah. Indeed the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) considered the one who does that, to be from the most evil of those who steal. On the authority of Abee Qataadah (may Allaah be pleased with him), he said:

The Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) stated:

"The most evil of those who steal, is the one who steals from his Salaah."

The companions stated: 

"Oh Messenger of Allaah, how does he steal from his salaah?"

The Messenger of Allaah stated:

"He doesn't complete his bowing nor does he complete his prostration."

Or He (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said:

"He doesn't straighten his back in the bowing and prostrating."

(Authenticated by Imaam Al-Albaani in Saheeh Al-Jaami' #987)

The Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) considered stealing from the Salaah more evil and severe than the stealing of wealth."
