"[2] Aa'ishah (radiallaahu anhu) reported that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) said: "The one who rec ites the Qur'an and is skilled in do ing so will be with the obedient and noble angels and the one who recites the Qur'an in hesitance due to difficulty will receive a double reward."[3] Abdullaah bin Mas'ood (radiallaahu anhu) reported that the Messenger (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) said: "Whoever recites one letter from the Book of Allaah then he will receive a good reward, and every goo d deed is rewarded with ten t imes its li ke. I do not say that Alif Laam Meem is one word but Alif is one word, Laam is one word and Meem is one word."[4] Abdullaah bin Amr ibn al-Aas reported t hat the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) said: "It will be said to the one who had memorised the Qur'an [and acted upon it]: 'Recite the Qur'an (ascending the levels of Paradise thereby) and do so slowly and melodiously  just as you used to recite slowly and melodiously in the world since your abode will be at the  place where you finish reci ting your last verse."[5]  Nawwaas bin Sam'aan (radiallaahu anhu) reported that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) said: "The Qur'an and its people, those who used to act upon it in the world, will  be brought on the Day of Judgement. However, Sooratul-Baqarah and Sooratul-Imraan will  precede them and argue in favour of those who memorised and recited these soorah's (in this life)."[6] Umar ibn al-Khattaab (radiallaahu anhu) reported that t he Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) said: "Verily, Allaah will raise elevate some people by th is Book and He will degrade others with it."[7] Al-Bara' narrated: A man was reciting Surat Al-Kahf and h is horse was tied with two ropes  beside him. A cloud came down and spread over that man, and it kept oncoming closer and closer to him till his horse started jumping (as if afraid of so mething). When it was morning, the man came to t he Prophet, and told him of that experience. The Prophet said, "That was As- Sakina (tranquility) which descended because of (the recitation of) the Qur'an."
