we Muslims respect koran but do not practice it to live a successful life.

Symbolic of using cannon for killing mosquitoes the holy book is used instead to destroy satanic castles and kill monsters living therein. The mullah may use Koran in amulets (taaviz) to cure diseases and to protect from evil, and the common man to swear upon the book as witness to affirm truth/solemnity of the promises/statements. In the normal day to day dealings when it would (as it historically did) provide solution to our problems, we hardly consult the book for guidance. Rather we feel kind of forced, threatened, and even intruded upon in its presence (na-aoozubiilah).
As Civil Service Rules---the written document that contains rules, regulations, and procedures---are to a bureaucrat to follow the administrative routines for running a government, the holy Koran is for us Muslims to live a successful life both in this world and the world hereafter in eternity. Unquestionably sacrosanct and inviolable, while the CSR command reverence and indispensability in the bureaucracy world wide, the holy Koran also commands respect and indispensability in the Muslim world. In effect if the civil servant can not afford to lose sight of this crucial guidebook for a jiffy---he would ensure that the book is always handy, within reach, be it on table, on rack, on floor or as bed book under pillow so---so must it be the case with the holy Koran. Our ancestors treated the book as the guide to which they continuously referred and with which they instinctively compared themselves. As placing of CSR on ground with the bureaucrat's feet pointed document-wards would not tantamount to showing disrespect to the document, Muslims must understand that paying reverence to the book would be possible only when we live our life as per its teachings.
