10. Abi from Muhammad b. Yahya al-’Attar from Muhammad b. Ahmad from al-Hassan b. Ali b. Abi Uthman from a man from Hafs b. Ghiyath who said: “O Hafs! One from our Shias who dies without having a good knowledge of recitation of the Holy Quran, is taught the Holy Quran in grave so that Allah grants him great ranks. Know that the levels of Paradise are equal to the number of verses in the Holy Quran. A reciter of the Holy Quran is told over there, ‘Recite a verse of the Holy Quran and go to the next level’.”
