The Ruling on Reciting the Qur'an Using the Method of Maqamat

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on reciting the Qur'an using what is called the method of maqamat?

The Shaykh:
It is not permissible. Maqamat are a type of singing, and the Qur'an is not recited using maqamat. The Qur'an is recited in the manner in which it was revealed and in the manner followed by the Salaf of this Ummah. Yes.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
Maqamat are among the Sufis, and they are types of singing and vocalization.
