The ruling on reading the Qur'an with the eyes without moving the lips

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Does reading the Qur'an with the eyes without moving the lips count as the remembrance of Allah, and is it achieved thereby?

Answer:
No, no. It does not count as the remembrance of Allah, nor does it count as reciting the Qur'an. Merely passing it over the heart without vocalizing it is not recitation; it is not recitation. Vocalization is required; he must hear himself. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
