Sheikh Muyingo Urges Muslims to Make Quran Recitation a Daily Habit

What the report says

Sheikh Mustafah Muyingo has called on Muslims to make Quran recitation and study a daily practice, saying that neglecting the holy book means losing its guidance, spiritual benefit and rewards. The message was delivered during Salam Jumah prayers held at MTN Uganda headquarters in Kampala, according to Nile Post.

In his sermon, Sheikh Muyingo described the Quran as guidance, mercy and healing for believers, and urged worshippers to treat time spent reading it as a priority rather than leaving it behind because of work or other pursuits. He encouraged Muslims to build small but steady habits, such as reciting after the Fajr and Maghrib prayers or setting aside a short period each day. He also reassured those who struggle with pronunciation that continued effort still carries reward.

The sheikh supported his appeal with references to Quranic verses and sayings attributed to Prophet Muhammad, including the importance of learning the Quran and teaching it to others. He warned against postponing Quran study until later in life and reminded listeners that tomorrow is never guaranteed.

He also urged families to make Quran reading part of home life and called on mosques to offer lessons for both adults and children. More broadly, the remarks fit into a familiar theme in Islamic preaching on balancing religious devotion with daily responsibilities, though Nile Post’s report focused on this specific prayer gathering in Kampala.
