TO SEEK REFUGE IN ALLAH
           FROM THE CURSED SATAN
           WHEN THE QUR'AN IS RECITED
           Whenever you recite the Qur'an, seek refuge with Allah from the
           accursed satan. (Qur'an, 16:98)

           TO LISTEN AND BE QUIET
           WHEN THE QUR'AN IS RECITED
           When the Qur'an is recited listen to it and be quiet so that hopefully
           you will gain mercy. (Qur'an, 7:204)
           TO PONDER THE QUR'AN
           Will they not ponder the Qur'an? If it had been from other than
           Allah, they would have found many inconsistencies in it. (Qur'an,
           4:82)
           Those who remember Allah, standing, sitting and lying on their
           sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth:
           'Our Lord, You have not created this for nothing. Glory be to You!
           So safeguard us from the punishment of the Fire. (Qur'an, 3:191)
           We have made the Qur'an easy to remember. But is there any
           rememberer there? (Qur'an, 54:17)

           TO KEEP THE QUR'AN IN MIND
           And remember the Signs of Allah and the wise words which are
           recited in your rooms. Allah is All-Pervading, All-Aware. (Qur'an,
           33:34)

           TO READ THE QUR'AN IN  ORDER
           Or a little more, and recite the Qur'an in measure. (Qur'an, 73:4)
           TO GIVE ADVICE WITH THE QUR'AN
           You can only warn those who act on the Reminder (the Qur'an) and
           fear the All-Merciful in the Unseen. Give them the good news of
           forgiveness and a generous reward. (Qur'an, 36:11)
