Reciting the Qur'an in the manner of musical modes

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks and says: What is the ruling on reciting the Qur'an in the manner of musical modes that have become widespread now?

Answer:
This is not permissible. Reciting the Qur'an is to be done in the manner in which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions recited it. As for reciting it in the style of singers and musicians, that is not permissible; it is something that has been prohibited.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
