Academic achievements and trophies are framed and hung on designated walls in peoples homes, while the Mus’hafs are in the back of a drawer or shelf somewhere covered in a layer of thick dust.
Parents celebrate and display joy like madmen upon the worldly achievements of their children, but they don’t even notice when their children pass weeks without picking up their Mus’haf.
They never forgot to do their homework a day in their lives, but when someone inquires about the month that passed by where they never touched their Mus’haf, the excuse is “I forgot”.
The things that people consider valuable in their lives are always very obvious — and they will be even more obvious on Yawm Al-Qiyāmah.
وَقَالَ ٱلرَّسُولُ يَـٰرَبِّ إِنَّ قَوْمِى ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ هَـٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ مَهْجُورًۭا
And the Messenger has said, "O my Lord, indeed my people have taken this Qur’ān as [a thing] abandoned."
[25:30]
Do you think yourself exempt from having the Messenger ﷺ testify against you for your neglect of Allāh’s Book?
If your “forget” about the Qur’ān often, be afraid of Allāh forgetting you.
