Hafs bin Ghiyath Hanafi narrated that Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say: Indeed, if the Qur’an is recited in a house, it becomes spacious for its inhabitants, (the merciful) angels are present there, and Satan flees from that house, and goodness increases in it. And the house in which the Noble Qur’an is not recited becomes constricted for its inhabitants, the angels leave it, Satan comes and resides in it, and goodness becomes scarce in it.
