SPIRIT OF ISLAM DECEMBER 2018

13 Spirit of Islam Issue 72 December 2018 that things are being repeated but be aware of the fact that what is being said is from God and feel that repetition is required to instil the importance of what is being said, as one forgets things easily. This is the type of individual that the Quran is seeking to mould — one who is attracted to the divine world as people normally are to this world; one who finds that the word of God grows on him the more he hears it; one for whom the Quran becomes food for the soul, more welcome than any food with which one nourishes the body. Such people will not be averse to repetition of the words of the Quran, for every repeated word will bear for them a new meaning. o
