Cleanliness:
The Holy Qur’an is the word of
Allah addressed to us, and we should therefore treat it with due respect. One
of the prime conditions for handling the Qur’an has been set in the book
itself.
لا
یمسہ الا المطھرّون۔
“A book well guarded which none
shall touch but those who are clean.” [56:78-79]
This means that in order to touch the Qur’an one needs to
be in a state of ritual purity (tahara) to be obtained through ‘wudu’ or
ablution.
The Right Niyya:
When taking
up the Qur’an for study, recitation and reflection it must be done with the
intention to seek Allah’s pleasure.
Pronounce its words correctly;
this implies that one needs to pay attention to correct pronunciation both of
the various letters as well as words, length, pause, etc.
