Why Do We read Quran...

" Good story.........hope you enjoy it"

Why do we read Quran, even we can't understand not even a single Arabic???? "

This is 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 Qur'an. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in everyway he could.One day the grandson asked, "Grandpa, I try to read the Qur'an just likeyou but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soonas I close the book.What good does reading the Qur'an do?"The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove andreplied, "Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back abasket 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 fasternext 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 hereturned 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 ofwater.You're just not trying hard enough," and he went out the door to watch theboy try again.At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show hisgrandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would leakout before he got back to the house. The boy again dipped the basket into river and ran hard, but when hereached 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 thebasket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basketand was now clean, inside and out. "Son, that's what happens when you read the Qur'an. 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 ourlives.

It is better to try and fail, than not try at all
