1. Recite it slowly. For that will help in understanding the Qur'an and contemplating it. [Tafseer Ibn Katheer of 73:4]
2. Beautify your voice. [Abu Dawood]
3. To NOT rush.
Ibn
Mas`ud that he said, "Do not scatter the (recitation of) Qur'an out
like the scattering of sand, and do not rush through it like the hasty
recitation of poetry. Stop at its amazing parts and make your heart move
with it. None of you should let his concern be to reach the end of the
chapter.'' (al Baghawi)
4. Reading of the Quran out loud.
There
is no doubt that it is necessary to read the Quran loud enough so that
the reader can hear it himself because reading means distinguishing
clearly between sounds; thus sound is necessary, and the smallest degree
of it is that which he can hear himself. If he cannot hear himself in
salah, his prayer is not correct. As for reading so loud that he can be
heard by others, it is to be considered praiseworthy in one respect and
undesirable in another.
5. Weeping while reading.
6. Seeking Allah's refuge when coming across verses telling us about the punishment of Allah (eg. Hellfire).
8. Reflect and ponder over the ayahs. [4:82 and others]
9. Reading with consciousness and respect. Not like one reads a Newspaper or a Magazine. Knowing that these are the Words of Allah, Subhanu wa ta'ala.
10. Being Careful. To not make Major mistakes while reading which changes the meaning of a word.
11. Always seeking refuge in Allah from shaitan before beginning to read or when you resume reading after an interruption. [16:98]
12. Hoping for the Reward from Allah for each letter.
