Is Reading The Qu'ran Following The Recitation From An Audio Permissible? by wura4show(op): 12:51pm On Jun 17, 2016
Asalam alaekum waramatullah wabarakatuhu. Please, I want to ask if one can recite the holy Qur'an alongside a background audio of the particular surah one is reading, like Surah-al-Baqarah? Is it permissible in Islam? Jazakumlahi Khaira as you answer this question. Ramadan Kareem

I always do it too but my younger brother told me is not proper but me I like it has it has helped me alot in reading well with the right tajweed and most importantly in memorizing both the short and the long surah. That's why I don't stop it.

Can you read the letters of the Quran. I mean can you read surahs you haven't memorized on your own without tajweed (without using the audio)?

Or you use the audio for memorization

That means you are imitating the reciter's voice. I used to do that before till I get a tajweed teacher, now I imitate him whenever he reads. I think it's normal to copy your teacher esp in things you don't know.

Just discover your voice, avoid changing your pattern of reading. Whenever you are reciting, remember you are doing it to please Allah not anyone

Beautification of the voice is a gift from Allah and may He increase you in that.

Wa alaykum salam waramatullah wabarakatuhu

Are you doing that in order to memorize?

What's the difference between teacher voice and that of reciter, I think both are still imitation.

*Beautification*Their is one hadith that says Allah love it most, when an individual is reciting the Holy Quran in a loud and melodious form so that is what I always follow. I mean the hadith

Don't get me wrong sis, A reciter can be your teacher as well if you are learning from him.

Have not heard about that hadith but I know about an ayat in suratul muzzamil verse 4. Thank Allah you can beautify the Qur’ân, so many people are struggling with that
