| Returning to the Quran |
|
|
The
relationship between us and the Qur'an is undoubtedly of great importance;
therefore, it is strange that it is this relationship which we often neglect.
I have a theory as to why we tend not to focus on the Qur'an: we are drawn
towards controversy. The Qur'an and its sciences have no such divisive opinions.
Human beings love controversy. I believe the reason we tend to argue back and
forth regarding the same issues such as moon-sighting or eating zabiha is
because these issues allow us to take a little bit of textbook knowledge and
preside over people. It gives our nafs (lower self) a sense of satisfaction to
'beat' our opponent in arguments. The Qur'an however has no such arguments,
because in reality who can argue over the minutiae of the prestigious science of
tajweed (the art of reciting the Qur'an)? Or the qira'at (styles of Qur'anic
recitation)?
Allah 
says in the Qur'an that the Messenger 
will have a complaint against his nation-meaning a complaint against us. This
complaint will not be that the community prayed 20 rak`at instead of 8, or 8
instead of 10, it will be that the community missed the foundation of everything
in the first place-the Qur'an.

| The Month of the Quran |
|
Before it came to be known as the month of
Fasting, the companions of the Prophet knew Ramadan as a month of the Quran, the
last and ever lasting divine guidance to humanity. "The month of Ramadan in
which was revealed the Quran, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the
guidance and the Criterion (between right and wrong). So, whoever of you sights
the month, he/she must observe fasts that month and whoever is ill or on a
journey, the same number (of days which one did not observe fasts must be made
up) from other days. Allah intends for you ease, and he does not want to make
things difficult for you. He wants that you must complete the same number of
days and that you must glorify Allah for having guided you so that you may be
grateful to Him." (2:184).
The revelation began in the month of Ramadan. The night in which the Quran began
to be revealed is referred in the Quran as the blessed night: We sent it (the
Quran) down on a blessed night, (44:2)
or the night of Decree, Verily, we have sent it (this Quran) down in the Night
of Al-Qadr. (97:1).
It was the strength, clarity, simplicity, and universality of the message that
the night was described as an extraordinary night.
