While listening to the Qur’an, each of its melodies assumes a new
attitude and mood according to its audience’s degrees of guidance.
Try to assume the mood of intermediaries ranging from Gabriel, who
brought it to the Prophet, to the one from whom you hear it direct-
ly. While listening to the reciter, try to hear it as if listening to the
Prophet reciting it at the summit of Prophethood to humanity and
other beings throughout the world. Then, assume the manner of
Gabriel while he recites it to the Prophet on the “highest horizon.”
Finally, if possible, try to hear it as if listening to it from behind
70,000 veils from the Eternally Speaking One, Who speaks to the
Prophet at “the distance of two bows’ length.”
