“And We have indeed made the Qur'an easy to understand and remember….’

باب قَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى ‏{‏وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ لِلذِّكْرِ}

وَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «كُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ لِمَا خُلِقَ لَهُ». يُقَالُ مُيَسَّرٌ مُهَيَّأٌ. وَقَالَ مُجَاهِدٌ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ بِلِسَانِكَ هَوَّنَّا قِرَاءَتَهُ عَلَيْكَ وَقَالَ مَطَرٌ الْوَرَّاقُ: {وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُدَّكِرٍ} قَالَ: هَلْ مِنْ طَالِبِ عِلْمٍ فَيُعَانَ عَلَيْهِ؟

Narrated `Imran:

English translation

Narrated `Ali:

While the Prophet (ﷺ) was in a funeral procession, he took a stick and started scraping the earth with it and said, "There is none of you but has his place assigned either in Hell or in Paradise." They (the people) said, "Shall we not depend upon that (and give up doing any deeds)?' He said, " Carry on doing (good deeds) for everybody will find it easy to do such deeds as will lead him to his destined place for which he has been created ." (And then the Prophet (ﷺ) recited the Verse):-- 'As for him who gives (in charity) and keeps his duty to Allah...' (92:5)
