Abandoning The Qur'aan
In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Allaah the Most High says:
"And the Messenger said O My Lord my people have abandoned - acting or listening - to the Qur'aan." [al-Furqaan: 30]
So Allaah informs us about His Messenger and Prophet Muhammad, that he said: {My Lord my people have abandoned - acting or listening - to the Qur'aan.} and that is because the idol-worshippers did not pay attention nor listen to the Qur'aan, as Allaah says: {The ones who disbelieved said do not listen to this Qur'aan but make noise so that you may overcome it.}
Thus when the Qur'aan was being read to them they would make noise and futile speech so that they would not hear the Qur'aan. However, this is from the ways of abandoning the Qur'aan. Likewise not having faith and trust in it is also from the ways of abandoning the Qur'aan. Not pondering over it, nor trying to understand it, not acting by it, not obeying its orders and refraining from what it forbids, turning to something other than it - whether poetry, opinions or music, amusement, or other forms of speech and taking a path that is derived from other than the Qur'aan are all from the ways of abandoning the Qur'aan.
