Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "The most superior among you (Muslims) are those who learn the Quran and teach it."
[Bukhari: Book 61: Hadith 546]

"Verily, We, it is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Quran) and surely, We will guard it (from corruption)"
[Al-Hijr 15:9]

"So when you want to recite the Quran, seek refuge with Allah from Shaytaan, the outcast (the cursed one)."
[Al-Nahl 16:98]

"Verily, this Quran guides to that which is most just . . ."
[Al-Israa 17:9]

" And indeed, We have bestowed upon you seven of al-Mathaani (the seven repeatedly recited verses, i.e. Soorat al-Faatihah) and the Grand Quran. "
[Al-Hijr 15:87]
