Benefits of listening to the Quraan

Q: What are the benefits of listening to the Quraan?

A: Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) had requested Ubay bin Ka`b (radhiyallahu anhu) to recite the Quraan Shareef and he was very much delighted at his recitation. So there can't be anything greater than emulating the way of Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam). Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) used to also recite to Jibreel (alaihis salaam) and he would listen. What a great work.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
