Imam Sadiq (AS) has said:

 

"One who recites the Quran  and is a believing youth, the Quran becomes mixed with his flesh and blood; and Allah (the Great and Magnificent) will place him with the noble, devoted angles; and the Quran will be a barrier (between him and the hell-fire) on the Day of Judgement."
