عن أبي أمامة رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول‏:‏ ‏"‏ اقرءوا القرآن فإنه يأتي يوم القيامة شفيعًا لأصحابه‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari (May Allah be pleased with him) reported

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "The believer who recites the Qur'an is like a citron whose fragrance is sweet and whose taste is delicious. A believer who does not recite the Qur'an is like a date-fruit which has no fragrance but has a sweet taste. The hypocrite who recites the Qur'an is like basil whose fragrance is so sweet, but its taste is bitter. The hypocrite who does not recite the Qur'an is like a colocynth which has no fragrance and its taste is bitter."[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
