The Importance of the Quran in Islam:A New Muslim’s Guide to Understanding the Quran
One of the most crucial elements of being a Muslim is understanding and practicing the teachings of the holy Quran. As you start to learn the Arabic language, you may find it difficult, but fret not, as Allah (SWT) has promised guidance, and He will make the path clear for you, Insha’Allah (God Willing).
Why Learn Arabic?
The Quran is the sacred book of Islam, revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as a source of guidance for all mankind. To truly understand and appreciate the profound meanings of this divine book, learning the Arabic language, or at least its basics, is essential.

Inspiration from the Quran and Hadith:A New Muslim’s Guide to Understanding the Quran
As you begin your Quranic studies, here are some verses and hadiths (sayings of the Prophet) to inspire and motivate you:
Verse 1: The Quran Made Easy
“And We have certainly made the Quran easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?” (Al-Quran 54:17)
In this verse, Allah (SWT) emphasizes that He has made the Quran easy to understand and memorize. Make dua (supplication) for His guidance and help, and embrace the challenge with enthusiasm and strength, knowing that Allah (SWT) is with you every step of the way.
Verse 2: The Serenity of Remembrance
“Those who have believed and whose hearts are assured by the remembrance of Allah. Unquestionably, by the remembrance of Allah, hearts are assured.” (Al-Quran 13:28)
Allah (SWT) highlights the serenity that comes with remembering Him. As you engage with the Quran, place emphasis on understanding and reflecting upon its teachings. The act of reflection will strengthen your faith and allow you to grow as a believer.
Hadith: The Reward for Striving
Abu Musa Al-Ash’ari (RA) narrated that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said, “The likeness of the one who reads the Quran and memorizes it is that he is with the righteous honorable scribes. The likeness of the one who reads it and tries hard to memorize it, even though it is difficult for him, he will have two rewards.” (Bukhari)
This hadith highlights the rewards for those who strive to learn and memorize the Quran. Even if it may be hard, Allah (SWT) promises double rewards for those who try their best. This should motivate you to continue studying the Quran and commit its verses to memory, Insha’Allah.
Conclusion: Embrace the Journey
Learning the Quran is a beautiful journey every Muslim should embark on. It strengthens your faith, brings you closer to Allah (SWT), and imparts valuable lessons for life. Be patient, stay committed, and remember that Allah (SWT) is with you on this journey. May Allah (SWT) make your journey easy and shower His mercy upon you.
