Does the listener of the Qur'an receive a reward?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it better for him to say, Honorable Shaykh, does the Muslim receive the reward of reciting the Qur'an if he is content with listening?

Answer:
No, listening carries a reward, but recitation—where the Muslim recites the Qur'an himself—is better than listening alone. Yes.
