The Quran The Wisdom of Life

Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Al-Modarresi

When the believer looks with the Light of Allah into the verses of remembrance, the boundaries of knowledge become expansive, emanating from a central point which is the knowledge of Allah's Oneness, extending to every particle in this vast universe. The believer's recognition then takes form like a cascading waterfall of enlightened knowledge.
For the believer to provide means of connecting with the radiance of the Quran within himself, he must remember the following insights:

First: One should strive constantly to elevate oneself to benefit from the Quran, rather than wishing for the descent of Allah's book to one's level. If you do not guide yourself by the Quran, do not interpret it according to your understanding, do not confine it within the limits of your knowledge, and do not despair of understanding it. Stay in the tension of seeking and the rebellion of the student for truth until Allah opens a window for you to the realities of His book.

Second: Purify your heart from the veil of fear of knowing the truth and avoiding its responsibilities, for the fearful heart does not rest in the truth. The believer is the one who understands and reaches its light.

Third: Submitting to the truth that one knows is a ladder to knowing the truth that one is ignorant of. Therefore, striving to implement the commandments of the Quran is a means to know more of its truths.

Fourth: When you read the Quran, clear your heart from any thoughts or whispers, and direct yourself directly to the light of the book. You will find successive waves pouring from it.

The book in our hands, discussions on contemplating the wise Quran, is formulated in the form of a book presented to the noble reader. May Allah benefit with it those who read while they are attentive.
