- angra_mainyu 2y agoIn Islam there's a certain reverence for memorizing the Quran, unlike in Christianity. In fact, being a Hafiz or your child being a Hafiz is a point of pride. This in part goes back to Islamic lore/history. Another part is that there is the belief that there are rewards associated with, being accompanied by angels iirc.
