Al-Quran is easy to be understood ( part 2 )

Apart from two factors that mentioned in the previous article, there are a few other reasons why Muslims feel that the Quran is difficult to be understood.


1. They do not know for what the Quran is revealed

It is obvious that many Muslims assume Quran has been awarded to them just for reciting, even they could not understand its contents. In Muslim communities, their generation just be thought how to read this sacred book accurately in term of tajwid. Moreover, at the higher stage, the competition of Quran recitation is organized and encouraged to find whose voice is tunable. 

In fact, Allah has already stressed in the Quran, why he reveals this book to Muslims:-  

[This is] a blessed Book which We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], that they might reflect upon its verses and that those of understanding would be reminded. ( Sod: 29)

Based on this versus, it is clear that what are required for Muslim when they open the Quran which are they have to ponder upon its versus and then take the lessons from it. This process is called as the tadabbur  which is an obligation for every Muslim.

2. They do not know the message of Quran.

Apart from that, failing to understand the main messages of Quran make this book looks difficult for its readers. In fact, the process of tadabbur is much more easier if they know what is the meaning of the Quran. There a few versus tell us about the main messages of the Quran. One of them is from Yunus. Allah says:-

O mankind, there has to come to you instruction from your Lord and healing for what is in the breasts and guidance and mercy for the believers. ( Yunus: 57)

This versus clearly stress that there are four messages that brought by Quran through its versus, which are : exhortation, healing for the (diseases) in human hearts, guidance, mercy.

Therefore, to make the process of understanding Quran easier, readers should decide what is the message of every versus that read by them. It could consist one or more of these four messages. Either it is instruction in order to make the readers afraid of doing the disallowed things in their life or it is healing so as to cure human heart, or guidance to give true directions in human life, and mercy for the believer in order to make them trusted and happy with their choice.
