Wants to send the translation of some Quranic verses to her friends each week by email

Question:
Asalam aleikom! Thank you for this great service you are providing. My question is about sawaab and Qur'an. I would like to make my friends read more Qur'an, including myself before anyone else, and thought of an easy idea to do this. By sending them a quotation from the Qur'an (for eg. a few ayats) each week by email, i would make it easier for them since many use the excuse of not having time to read Qur'an. I am wondering if this would give me sawab in any way? is it okey to do this, or should i leave everyone to try their best on their own? note that i would use Quranic verses translated in english, since many of us dont read arabic very well. Your answer will be much appreciated, jazak Allah khairan.
Answer:
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.
It is permissible for you to send the translation of some verses of the Quran to your female friends in order to encourage them to read and benefit from the meanings of the translation of the Quran. This is included in cooperating in doing good which we are instructed to do. We ask Allaah to reward you for doing so.

Allaah Knows best.
