[Machine] Whoever recites the Quran, for every letter of a verse, he will receive ten rewards. And I do not say that 'Alif Lam Mim' is one letter, but 'Alif' is a letter, 'Lam' is a letter, and 'Mim' is a letter, totaling thirty rewards.

مَنْ قَرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ فَلَهُ بِكُلِّ حَرْفِ آيَةٍ عَشْرُ حَسَنَاتٍ وَلَا أَقُولُ الْم عَشْرٌ وَلَكِنْ أَلِفٌ وَلَامٌ وَمِيمٌ ثَلَاثُونَ حَسَنَةً
