What is Faith?

English book, p. 36

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

The Qur’an is for admonition, not just for recital Aishah, hearing of certain individuals who read the Qur’an all night, reading it right through once, or even twice in a night, remarked, “what is there in mere recitation?” I used to stay up all night with the Prophet and, in his recitations of the chapters entitled ‘Cow’, ‘Family of Imran’, and ‘Women’, whenever he came to a verse which contained a warning, he would pray to God and seek refuge with Him, and whenever he came to a verse bearing good tidings, he would pray to God and express his longing for what was mentioned in the verse. (AHMAD, MUSNAD)
