7:204
Since the way of spiritual food and medicine is the ear, therefore, the Heavenly Doctor has said: “And when the Qur’an is recited, give your ear to it and be silent; that you may receive mercy” (7:204). It is obvious that this wisdom-filled command of God, the Blessed, the Exalted, is equally true for the Muslims of every age and every country, whether they understand the language of the Qur’an or not. It is because of the fact that in the blessed voice of the Qur’an, there is spiritual food and medicine for the Muslims of every level, as it (Qur’an) is the means of healing for all the people of faith (17:82) and “dhikr”, both in the sense of exhortation and in the sense of remembrance of God (16:44). Thus a Muslim, through the soul-nourishing voice of the holy Qur’an, can certainly cure his illness of negligence, even though he cannot directly understand the exhortations of its voice. It is the abundant remembrance of God, through which are removed all diseases and defects (62:10).
