Ascend Through His ﷻ Words

In prayer we stand in front of God ﷻ and recite His words to Him. That in itself has layers that deserve gratitude: God ﷻ sent to us His words in a language we can speak. A language we can understand. He ﷻ commanded us to recite His ﷻ words. He ﷻ did not leave us to our own inadequate expressions. He ﷻ did not favor eloquent speech over the plain-spoken. He ﷻ commanded us to recite His ﷻ praise. So we stand. Several times a day. We recite His ﷻ words to Him ﷻ. And what is more deserving for Him ﷻ to hear? Which is better? His ﷻ words, or mine? Is it any surprise that The Most Merciful, commanded me to recite His ﷻ words when I desire to speak with Him ﷻ? The mercy of saving me from my words, and allowing me to speak the words He ﷻ has revealed. So read the Qur'an and remember the mercy of God ﷻ in allowing you to read, speak, and understand His ﷻ divine speech.
