① It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Musa رضي الله عنه that the Prophet Muhammad صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said:
تعاهدوا هذا القرآن، فوالذي نفس محمد بيده لهو أشد تفلتا من الإبل فى عقلها
"Protect and take care of this Quran. By the One in Whose hand is the life of Muhammad (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم)! It is more severe in forgetting than a camel that is tied with a rope."

② It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar رضي الله عنهما that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said:
إنما مثل صاحب القرآن كمثل الإبل المعقلة، إن عاهد عليها أمسكها، وإن أطلقها ذهبت
"The owner (memorizer) of the Quran is like a tied camel; if he watches over it and takes care of it, he will control it, and if he lets it go, it will run away."
Reference: Bukhari, Book of the Virtues of the Quran 5031. Muslim, Book of the Prayer of Travelers and its Shortening 789.
③ Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud رضي الله عنه states that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said:
بئس ما لأحدهم أن يقول نسيت آية كيت وكيت، بل هو نسي، استذكروا القرآن، فإنه أشد تفصيا من صدور الرجال من النعم بعقلها
"If a person says that he has forgotten such and such verse, this is bad. Rather, it has been forgotten from him. Protect the Quran, for it is more severe in slipping from the hearts of men than animals slipping from their ropes."
Reference: Bukhari, Book of the Virtues of the Quran 5032. Muslim, Book of the Prayer of Travelers and its Shortening 790.
① Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates, I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) say:
ما أذن الله لشيء ما أذن لنبي حسن الصوت يتغنى بالقرآن يجهر به
"Allah Almighty listens attentively to the recitation of the Holy Quran by His Prophet with a good voice, but He does not listen attentively to anything else in the same way."
Reference: Bukhari, Book of the Virtues of the Quran 5024. Muslim, Prayer of Travelers and Shortening It 792. Abu Dawood, Book of Prayer 1473.
② Sayyiduna Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates, I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) recite Surah At-Tin and Az-Zaytun in the Isha prayer, and I have not heard anyone with a better voice than his.
Reference: Bukhari 767, 4952, 769. Muslim 177/464.
③ Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash’ari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said:
لقد أوتيت مزمارا من مزامير آل داود
"(O Abu Musa!) You have been given the melodious voice like that of the family of Dawud (David, peace be upon him)."
Reference: Bukhari, Book of the Virtues of the Quran 5048. Muslim, Book of Prayer of Travelers and Shortening It 793. Tirmidhi, Book of the Virtues of the Quran from the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) 3855.
① Sayyiduna Sahl bin Mu'adh Jahni narrates from his father, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
من قرأ القرآن وعمل بما فيه ألبس والداه تاجا يوم القيامة ضوءه أحسن من ضوء الشمس فى بيوت الدنيا لو كانت فيكم، فما ظنكم بالذي عمل بهذا؟
"Whoever reads the Quran and acts upon it, on the Day of Resurrection, his parents will be crowned with a crown whose brightness will be better than the brightness of the sun in the houses of the world if that (sun were with you without any distance). Now what do you think about the status and rank of the person who has also acted according to it?"
Reference: Abu Dawood, Kitab al-Salat 1453. The narration is weak. In its chain, Zaban bin Fa'da is a weak narrator.
