In the two Authentic Books on the authority of
Abu Musa from the Prophet (sallahu alayhi wa salaam):
مَثَلُ
الْمُؤْمِنِ الَّذِي يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ كَمَثَلِ الأُتْرُجَّة طَعْمُها طَيِّبٌ
وَ رِيْحُها طَيِّبٌ ، وَ مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ الَّذِي لَا يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ
كَمَثَلِ التَّمْرَةِ طَعْمُها طَيِّبٌ وَ لَا رِيْحَ لَهَا، وَ مَثَلُ
الْمُنَافِقِ الَّذِي يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ كَمَثَلِ الرَّيْحَانَة رِيْحُها
طَيِّبٌ وَ لَا طَعْمَ لَهَا، وَمَثَلُ الْمُنَافِقِ الَّذِي لَا يَقْرَأُ
الْقُرْآنَ كَمَثَلِ الْحَنْظَلَةِ طَعْمُهَا مُرٌّ وَ لَا رِيْحَ لَهَا
“The example of
the believer who recites the Qur’ân is like the example of a citron, its taste
and smell is good. The example of the believer who doesn't recite the
Qur’ân is like the example of a date-fruit; its taste is good without
having any smell to it. The example of the hypocrite who recites the
Qur’ân is like the example of sweet basil, it smells good and its taste
is bitter. The example of the hypocrite who doesn’t recite the Qur’ân is like
the example of colocynth, its taste is bitter with no smell to it.”[1]
