Abdullaah ibn ‘Amr ibn Al-’Aas heard the Prophet (pbuh) saying: “It will be said to the companion of the Qur’an: Read and elevate (through the levels of Paradise) and beautify your voice as you used to do when you were in the dunyaa (world)! For verily, your position in Paradise will be at the last verse you recite!” [At-Tirmidi]

Aboo Umaamah relates that the Prophet (pbuh) said: “Read the Qur’an, for verily it will come on the Day of Resurrection as an intercessor for its companions.” [Muslim]
