The Holy Prophet of Islam (SAW) has said:

 

"One who listens to the Quran (while it is being recited), will be kept away from the evils of this world; and one who recites the Quran will be kept away from the trials of the hereafter; and the person who listens to even one ayah of the book of Allah (SWT) it is better (for him) than a mansion of gold."
