Why do we read The Holy Quran, even if we can't understand
a single Arabic word???? This is a beautiful story.
An old American Muslim lived on a farm in the mountains of eastern
Kentucky with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa was up early
sitting at the kitchen table reading his Quran. His grandson wanted
to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could.
One day the grandson asked, 'Grandpa! I try to read the Quran just
like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I forget
as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the Quran do?'
The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and
replied, 'Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a
basket of water.'
The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got
back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, 'You'll have to
move a little faster next time,' and sent him back to the river with
the basket to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the
basket was empty before he returned home. Out of breath, he told his
grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he
went to get a bucket instead.
The old man said, 'I don't want a bucket of water; I want a basket of
water. You're just not trying hard enough,' and he went out the door
to watch the boy try again.
At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show
his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water
would leak out before he got back to the house. The boy again dipped
the basket into river and ran hard, but when he reached his
grandfather the basket was again empty. Out of breath, he said, 'See
Grandpa, it's useless!'
'So you think it is useless?' The old man said, 'Look at the
basket.'
The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the
basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal
basket and was now clean, inside and out.
'Son, that's what happens when you read the Quran. You might not
understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you will be
changed, inside and out. That is the work of Allah in our lives.'

who guides to good will be rewarded equally'*
