💡 Explanation: The Quran is Allah's own words, so learning it and teaching it is the best kind of learning. You do not have to be a scholar to do this — learning one verse and teaching it to your child, your friend or your family already puts you among "the best".

The Quran is Allah's own words, so learning it and teaching it is the best kind of learning.
