قالَ الإِمامُ جَعْفَرُ ابْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصّادِقُ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ):
إِنَّ الْقُرآنَ لا يُقْرَ هَذْرَمَةً وَلكِنْ يُرَتَّلُ تَرْتِيلاً فَإِذا مَرَرْتَ بِآيَةٍ فِيها ذِكْرُ الْجَنَّةِ فَقِفْ عَنْدَها وَسَلِ اللّهَ عَزَّ وَّجَلَّ (الْجَنَّةَ)، وَ إِذا مَرَرْتَ بِآيَةٍ فِيها ذِكْرُ النّارِ فَقِفْ عِنْدَها وَ تَعَوَّذَهُ بِاللّهِ مِنَ النّارِ.

Imam Ja’far ibne Muhammad as-Sadiq (peace be upon him) has said

“Surely the Qur’an is not to be read in a rush or very quickly. Rather, it should be recited in slow, measured portions. Whenever you reach a verse which talks about Heaven, then stop (at that verse) and ask from Allah (the bounties of) Heaven. And whenever you reach a verse which speaks about the Hell, then stop (at that verse) and seek protection from Allah from the Hell Fire (and the punishment).”
