One evening, I sat with a book in my hand and my phone in the other.

I told myself, “Just 5 minutes of scrolling… then I’ll read.”

You already know what happened.

An hour gone.
Mind tired.
Book untouched.

Let me ask you something honestly.

When was the last time you finished a book?
Not a summary. Not a reel. Not a YouTube breakdown.
A real book.

Because here’s the uncomfortable truth.

We live in a world where we consume more knowledge than ever before
but understand less than ever before.

And that’s exactly why reading books is becoming a superpower.

“Iqra” — The First Command Was Not Random

The first word revealed in the Quran was:

“Iqra bismi rabbikallazi khalaq”
(Read in the name of your Lord who created)

Think about that.

Not pray first.
Not give charity first.
Not build wealth first.
