Am I Abandoning the Quran?

Many days have gone passed and I haven’t read from the Qur’an, so is this considered as abandoning the Qur’an?

• Answer: 

“That would be considered one of the greatest forms of deprivation!! If you find yourself not reciting the book of Allah and days have gone passed then cry over yourself. By Allah no servant is prevented from obedience except that it shows how distant he is from Allah. Sufyan Ath-Thawri (may Allah have mercy on him) said “I committed a sin that prevented me from Qiyam Al-Layl for six months.”
