My name is Akbar Qureshi. My question is that I wanted to learn Quran by meaning. The only thing is I feel more comfortable listen Quran translation instead of reading. But when I listen I put my full consentration. So am I doing a right job or not in terms of deeds (Aamal). Or reading traslation is more beneficial then listening in front of Allah.

Akbar Qureshi,

Let me welcome you to this beautiful site!

About your question, I would like to first remind you that there are two thoughts in theology, even as most of the scholars believe that the religious sermons give power, while the translation or transliteration only help to understand the meaning. The first and the more orthodox viewpoint believes in power of the word, as uttered by the seers. For them, the words, whatever they mean, have power in themselves, literally. They do not want to go away from the purity of the hymns, as they are scribbled in holy books.

The moderates believe in meaning and implementation.

Welcome there!
To listening the Quran is the blessing of God and have beneficial for you that hv much sawab also,but God wants that we do practice to make ourself a perfect human being by reading the Holy Book.
When you listen it you very concentrated and gaining knowledge but when you reading your every part of body feel pleasure.
Let example;
When you saw a red blooming rose wet with dew you love it feel joy but when you hold it in your hand you then truly able to discover the right feel,comfort,smell and the beauty of that rose.
So when you yourself read The Holy Quran you gain much heatedly comfort.

I hope the satisfied you.
