External Manners for reading the Qur’an: 1) Purity of body and clothes and place. Using sawak. 2) Facing the Qiblah. 3) Seeking refuge from rejected Satan and reading the basmalah. Not reading when yawning. 4) Avoiding cutting off reading to talk with people. 5) Stopping at a verse of warning and seeking protection with Allah, and stopping at a verse of mercy and asking The Merciful for His Bounty. 6) Humbleness and crying when reading. Imam An-Nawwawi may Allah be Merciful to him said: Crying when reading the Qur’an is a characteristic of those who know Allah (know Him through His names and Characteristics ) and the feelings of the righteous.
