In chapter 17 verse 82, Allah says: “And we send down the Qur’an that which is healing and mercy for the believers, but it does not increase the wrongdoers except in loss.”
The Messenger while explaining about the significance of the Qur’an and also the person who knows how to recite it and memorise it, he said that the best of you people is someone who knows the Qur’an and teaches other people.
