What if we flipped through it several times a day?
What if we used it to receive messages from the text?
What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?
What if we gave it to kids as gifts?
What if we used it as we traveled?
What if we used it in case of an emergency?
This is something to make you go ...hmm...where is my Quran?
Oh, and one more thing. Unlike our cell phone, we don't ever have to
worry about our Quran being disconnected!
Pass this on to everyone you know that has a cell phone.
Makes you
stop & think "where are my priorities?"

But it is for our guidance and the best respect we can show to the "Holy Quran", is to understand it completely and follow it in letter and spirit. I am arfraid carrying it in purses or pockets is not a good idea as sometime one needs to go to certain places like toilets etc. The book should be kept in mosques and safe places in houses. It should be read, understood and be acted upon . We should remember its verses and carry it rather in our minds and reveal it through our action. A true muslim is termed as walking and talking "Quran".
Once again deep regards for your love for the "Holy Book".

Im sorry, I dont agree with this. I agree that it should be followed and acted upon and a Muslim should try to be a "walking and talking Qur'an", but if you keep it in a case or bag, its not a problem according to many scholars.
And whats the point if you have to leave it at home or in Mosques, its better to have it with you constantly so you can continouly remind yourself and reflect on the ayahs. Theres so many times in the day when we stand idol playing with random things on the phone, sending pointless texts. Why not have the Qur'an, read even a few ayahs and there you go, a reminder.
And remind, for the reminder benefits the beleivers.[51:55]
Thank you for the reminder Psycho.
