Hadith on Quran: Readers of Quran never enter Hellfire

‘Uqbah ibn ‘Amir reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “If the Quran were placed in a leatherskin and then thrown into the fire, it would not burn.”

Al-Bayhaqi said, “It means whoever carries the Quran and recites it will never be touched by Hellfire.”
