The Messenger of Allah (blessings of Allah be upon him and his family) has said: “Nothing is harder for Satan to bear than a person who recites the Qur’an by looking at the pages (of the Qur’an).” Thawabul A’mal, Page 231 Hadith Number 11 قالَ رَسُولُ اللّهِ (صَلَّى اللّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ): نَوِّرُوا بُيُوتَكُمْ بِتِلاوَةِ الْقُرآنِ وَ لا تَتَّخِذُوها قُبُوراً كَما فَعَلَتِ الْيَهُودُ وَ النَّصارى.
The Messenger of Allah (blessings of Allah be upon him and his family) has said: “Brighten up your houses through the recitation of the Qur’an, and do not make them (your homes) like graves, similar to what the Jews and Christians have done (by not performing the prayers and worship of God in their house and limiting this to the Synagogues and Churches).” Usulul Kafi, Volume 2, Page 610 Hadith Number 12 قالَ الإِمامُ جَعْفَرُ ابْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصّادِقُ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ): مَنْ قَرَأَ الْقُرآنَ فَهُوَ غَنِيّ وَ لا فَقْرَ بَعْدَهُ وَ إِلاّ ما بِهِ غِنىً.
Imam Ja’far ibne Muhammad as-Sadiq (peace be upon him) has said: “One who recites the Qur’an will be free from need (of everyone), and thereafter will not be in need of anything.
But as for the one (who does not recite the Qur’an), nothing at all will make him needless (and he will always be in need of others).” Thawabul A’mal, Page 230 Hadith Number 13 قالَ رَسُولُ اللّهِ (صَلَّى اللّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ): مَنْ قَرَأَ عَشْرَ آياتٍ فِي لَيْلَةٍ لَمْ يُكْتَبْ مِنَ الْغافِلِينَ وَ مَنْ قَرَأَ خَمْسِينَ آيَةٍ كُتِبَ مِنَ الذّاكِرِينَ وَ مَنْ قَرَأَ مِائَةَ آيَةٍ كُتِبَ مِنَ الْقانِتِينَ.
The Messenger of Allah (blessings of Allah be upon him and his family) has said: “One who recites ten verses (ayat) of the Qur’an every night will not be counted amongst the negligent ones (Ghafilin); and one who recites fifty verses (ayat) will be written as those who remember Allah (Dhakirin); and one who recites one hundred verses (ayat) will be written down as the obedient and worshipper of Allah (Qanitin).” Thawabul A’mal, Page 232 Hadith Number 14 قالَ رَسُولُ اللّهِ (صَلَّى اللّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ): عَلَيْكَ بِتِلاوَةِ الْقُرآنِ وَذِكْرُ اللّهِ كَثِيراً فَإِنَّهُ ذِكْر لَكَ فِي السَّمآءِ وَ نُوْر لَكَ فِي الأَرْضِ.
