بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
I start by the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most merciful. Allah says:
"إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَـهُ فِى لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ - وَمَآ أَدْرَاكَ مَا لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ - لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ - تَنَزَّلُ الْمَلَـئِكَةُ وَالرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ -
سَلَـمٌ هِىَ حَتَّى مَطْلَعِ الْفَجْر
"Verily! We have sent it (this Quran) down in the night of Al-Qadr (Decree) - And what will make you know what the night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is? - The night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months (i.e. worshipping Allah in that night is better than worshipping Him a thousand months, (i.e. 83 years and 4 months).-Therein descend the angels and the Ruh [Jibrael (Gabriel)] by Allah's Permission with all Decrees,Peace! (All that night, there is Peace and Goodness from Allah to His believing slaves) until the appearance of dawn."
Surat Al Qadr
The Quran, the words of Allah. It has a great role in our lives, but most of us neglect it today, we are too busy with this life, we can only make time for our family, friends, school, work but when we are asked about the Quran we ALWAYS have an excuse, this is due to our lack of knowledge about this great Book! Let me explain what this blog is about:
Last Ramadan there was a very successful show called "مسافر مع القران" which means "travel with the Quran" and I've noticed many people after watching this show started memorizing the Book of Allah, I was curious what made them become so motivated to memorize the Quran after watching it? so I've decided to watch it myself and to my surprise I found myself memorizing the Quran by the fifth episode of this show, 'veI realized how much time i have been wasting reading others books than this book, I've realized my lack of knowledge towards the Speech of Allah, Why do we focus on many books [novels,magazines..etc] but when it comes to Quran, we always have an excuse. I told my friends about this show [non arabic speakers] and they are now very eager to watch this show, so I have decided to translate it to English InshaAllah. And I have no doubt it will be very successful in the west by Allahs permission. Before I share with you the first episode, i would like to introduce you to those who came up with the idea of this great Show!
Starting with Shaykh Fahad al Kandri and shaykh Yusuf Al Ansari it was them that came up with the idea. They started their journey back in 2010, they traveled to Turkey, Morocco, Egypt, Chechnya and Mauritania to meet such great people- the people who memorized the Quran. You will meet kids as young as 3 yrs of age and as old as 70yrs who have memorized it. [yes.. kids who started memorizing by age of 3!!!] Each of those individuals will share with us their beautiful experience with the Quran, how long did it take them to memorize the Quran? What tips did they use? What was the reason that made them memorize it? what blessings came their way after they have memorized it?... all of the answers will be in this show!
I ask Allah sincerely to Reward the Crew who worked so hard for the sake of Allah, for the sake to motivate us to become closer to Allah by memorizing, understanding and acting upon the Quran. Thanks to the producer Ahmad Azaab and his helpers Kamal Al Kandri , Abdullah Al Noori and Mohammed Yusri - Find them on twitter @fahadalkandri @yousef_alansari @m_m3_quran [Keep in mind their twitter is only in arabic =) ]
- اسال الله ان يحفظهم اجمعين و يطول بعمرهم و يكثر من امثالهم و اسال الله ان يساعدني على ترجمة هذا البرنامج الذي يستحق اكبر جائزة.. اي والله
Keep them in your Douaa and I will very soon upload the first video, it takes time to translate so be patient with me, This video shown below is just a small part of the show, it has been translated by someone on youtube, thanks to them!
Shaykh fahad is interviewing a blind boy, who memorized the Quran and gained so much wisdom in his speech due to learning the book of Allah, He does not ask Allah to return his eyesight!! Why you may ask? watch the video.
