Walking with Quran

 Alhamdulillah. Almost 5 months ago, I had started to combine my morning walk with Listening Quran with Translation. This was to save me from the guilt feeling of spending almost an hour of morning to go for a walk. I think Time is too precious to spend just by walking. However, as our working patterns are mostly divorced from the need of physical activity, we are trying to find alternate ways to remain active - bandaid solution is to walk, jog or spend time in the gym.

Allah says in Quran that reciting Quran in the morning would be witness and I also need to keep me active. So by combining both, I had started this “Morning Walk with Quran”. I listen, and sometime recite with, the recitation and meaning of Quran. This turned out as a gem. It creates an ambient feeling in my heart. I am rediscovering the Quran everyday even I may had listened to many of the ayath in the past. I don’t know what creates that ambient feeling- is it the time when the sun is rising, the surroundings full of nature, being active or all of them combined but I am fascinated by it every morning. It increases my knowledge and Iman while decreases my blood pressure and cholesterol- what else you can ask from it? 


Alhamdulillah. Today I have finished one round of the Quran (Khatamul Quran). I will start from Sura Al-Baqarah from tomorrow InshaAllah and planning to continue this cycle until I meet my Lord. May Allah grant me the ability to get blessing from the Quran and apply it in my life. Ameen.
