The answer

Allah commanded the believers to listen attentively to the Qur'an, so that they may ponder its verses, understand its meanings, and act upon them. This brings them good in this world and the hereafter. The righteous predecessors used to gather to listen to the Qur'an. A Muslim should strive to understand the meanings of the Qur'an to the best of their ability. One who recites the Qur'an is rewarded, whether they understand its meanings or not, but they must be keen to understand them and act upon what they contain.
