Al Quran was revealed to Muhammad the Prophet Muhammad during the 23 years of his apostolate. Al Quran in down gradually to the Prophet Muhammad through the angel Gabriel. The angel Gabriel sent down the Quran to the Prophet's heart and he went immediately understand. This is mentioned in Al-Quran surah Al-Baqarah (2): 97.
Say: "Whoever is an enemy of Gabriel, and Gabriel had been lowered (Al Quran) to thy heart by Allah's leave, confirming what (the books) before and as guidance and glad tidings for those who believe."
Then the Prophet Muhammad that the Qur'an teaches to his followers. They write on the leaf midrib leaves, stones, bones, etc.. At that time there has been no paper like this modern era. Then the Companions memorized it and remove it immediately. Koranic Demkian; of the teach-Companions of the Companions others. Al Quran understood by rote. Not by mere reading.
At the time of the Prophet had died, many wars occurred. In war Yamamah example, many of the friends of martyr pemghafal Koran. Seeing this condition requested Umarpun Caliph Abu fuel to make the Qur'an Manuscripts. Abu bakar could object. "Are you asking me to do what the Prophet did not do?" He said. But with persistent Umar explained Manuscripts urgency in the interest of making the Muslims in the coming days. Finally, Abu Bakarpun be convinced and then agree with the idea of 'Umar ibn al-Khattab.
Abu Bakarpun then asked Zaid bin Haritha to perform this task. Zaid bin Haritha was time to say: "Are you asking me to do what the Prophet did not do?". But Zaidpun finally agreed and began collecting shahifah-sahhifah spread in the hands of the other Companions. Stones, leaves, bones, etc. are stored in the home Itupun Hafsa.
It was only at the time of Caliph Uthman ibn Affan, the Qur'an Manuscripts completion of 5 units. One stored Uthman and 4 others dispersed to: Mecca, Syria, Basra and Kufa. So at the time of the Companions, Successors tabi'it and thabi'i study of the Quran by rote because the number of Manuscripts very little.
What about the conditions today? When we look around us, among friends and our families, how many percent among those who memorized the Qur'an? What percentage are memorizing the Qur'an? Maybe we are hard to give a percentage as calculated by the fingers of our hands is not necessarily even all.
The Muslims are still quite content ourselves with reading the Qur'an Manuscripts and did not understand the meaning. And read the Quran just the beginning of interaction of Al Quran. Al-Quran as a guide for us is not enough to read but also be memorized and understood.
Maybe there are some who say why the need to memorize? Do not simply by reading and reading tarjemahan Manuscripts? Apparently not enough. By memorizing the Qur'an is "sense" (or zauk) that God gave to our hearts. Flavor is obtained because the verses are read over and over again. Kalam-kalam repetition of the sacred that is the "food" for the heart. And in accordance with paragraph at Al Baqarah: 97 above, the Qur'an was revealed at the heart of the Prophet Muhammad. Not in the sense his thoughts. Qur'an means that consumption / food is not merely reflections heart.
Pain is what makes us good to know God, understand His will and carry out all the light away from all the commands and prohibitions. "Pain" is not there also a little when we just read. Especially when reading it is not accompanied by understanding what it means. And reading is not repeated. The effect is very different from repeated them.
The Muslims now feel satisfied enough to read "blind" Al-Quran and studied from the ustadz, kiai and religious leaders. Without losing respect for the transmitter-transmitter of religious treatise, we as servants of God, as individuals also have an obligation to understand the Holy Quran from the original straight from the word-word.
When we memorize the Koran and mentadaburi God will teach us the knowledge through our hearts by means of inspiration. As Allah has said in the letter Ash-Shams verses 8-10:
"And inspired it (the road) wickedness and piety. Prosperous people who purify the soul, and indeed those who pollute merugilah. "
This inspiration can be felt in our hearts. Do not we ever confused about a problem, then at some point we, "chink" mememukan way to solve the problem properly. That inspiration.
Or the inspiration that as Furqan or anywhere distinguishing charitable-haq and which a false man. For example when we go into the immoral then our hearts will feel uneasy, uncomfortable. That was the warning from our hearts clean. Furqan is needed in life when the war with Shaitan whispers that persuade persuade us to do immoral by the lure of lucrative worldly. Therefore we need Furqan is that makes us know that haq steady and a false. As mentioned by Allaah in surat Al-Anfal verse 29:
This inspiration can be felt in our hearts. Do not we ever confused about a problem, then at some point we, "chink" mememukan way to solve the problem properly. That inspiration.
Or the inspiration that as Furqan or anywhere distinguishing charitable-haq and which a false man. For example when we go into the immoral then our hearts will feel uneasy, uncomfortable. That was the warning from our hearts clean. Furqan is needed in life when the war with Shaitan whispers that persuade persuade us to do immoral by the lure of lucrative worldly. Therefore we need Furqan is that makes us know that haq steady and a false. As mentioned by Allaah in surat Al-Anfal verse 29:
O ye who believe, if you devoted to God, we will give you Furqan. and we will keep you from your mistakes, and forgive (sins) you. and God has a great gift.
Al Quran is also a guide / guide for our lives of the Muslims:
Book (Al Quran) is not any doubt; guidance for those who are devoted.
(Surat al-Baqara: 2)
So basically Al Qu'an is way of life. But only a handful of people who memorize and schools of the Qur'an. How the Qur'an can guide the life of an individual Muslim to read and understand it when it completely just yet done? And many among the Muslims who died in the state have never read the Koran thoroughly.
Imagine if we would go to the top of Mount Sumeru. Before we left we armed with maps, signs and instructions by a professional mountain climber. But we do not understand these instructions. Are we guaranteed to reach the top of the mountain semeru safely? We may prefer to ask the locals. When we met with people who really know the mountain semeru maybe we will arrive safely. But when we asked people also lack schools of the road to the top of the mountain, will we reach the top safely, or maybe we could get lost? And if we are to understand, guide, maps, and also ask then we will get a shortcut to get to the top of the mountain.
Indeed the solution is understanding the Koran will not be successful if the religious education system is not running intensive early. As an example of, the English language is taught since elementary school. So we see when graduating high school students can belajat from berbahas British diktat. If this system is also to diterpakan Arabic (as the core medium of understanding the Qur'an), then when he was 20-25 for a Muslim to have started to understand the Holy Quran to the independent.
O my brothers of the Muslims, to understand the Holy Quran is not Fardhu kifayah charged in clerical, kiai or ustadz. But as exemplified by his friends, read, memorize, understand and implement the Qur'an is the duty of each Muslim indivial. When a Muslim individual to increase the quality, family dibinanya will also berkulaitas and eventually a civil society that longs for it also can be realized.
Thus our reflections on the Holy Quran. May Allaah and hidayahNya to all of us so that we become people who love Al Quran, read it, memorize it, understand it and remove it.
Allaah shawab bi nature
