Evidence and guidance
The Prophet ﷺ taught that whoever recites a letter from Allah's Book receives a good deed multiplied tenfold, and he clarified that Alif-Lam-Mim counts as three letters. Al-Tirmidhi graded the report hasan sahih. Allah also praises those who recite His Book, establish prayer and spend from what He provided.
How to apply it
This should encourage daily recitation without turning worship into a mechanical points system. Read carefully, correct mistakes and increase gradually. Reward for sincere effort does not mean pronunciation no longer matters.
