Question
Question: Does a person sin by not reading the Qur’an, though able to read it—or by reading it only in the month of Ramadan?
Answer
Answer: A Muslim does not sin merely by leaving off study of the Noble Qur’an, and nothing of its recitation is obligatory upon him except what he recites in his prayer. What is obligatory for Muslim is to act by the rulings of the Qur’an.
The threats reported regarding abandoning or “forsaking” the Qur’an refer to forsaking its rulings and leaving off guidance by its teachings.
