Etiquette of recital of the Noble Qur’an

As Allah (Glory and Greatness be to Him), has said in the following verse:
“Will they then not meditate on the Qur’an, or are there locks on the hearts.” - 

Noble Qur’an (47:24)

Those who do not ponder over the Noble Qur’an have been reprimanded severely. The first and important instruction and etiquette of Qur’anic recital is deliberation and pondering of the recited verse, because whoever will recite the Noble Qur’an with deliberations inevitably will discover the splendor and majesty of Qur’an and its bearer, and its meanings and contents to the extent of his deliberation and pondering. 

 

And this awareness and understanding will become a cause which would enable him to keep his mind and conscience away from scattered thinking during recital; thus, increasing understanding about the meanings and objectives of the Noble Qur’an in his deliberations. 

 

He should renounce whatever acts as obstacles in closing the path of understanding, and whatever positive and negative commands, advice, and exhortations are encountered by him must regards them as though all of them have been revealed especially for him.
