Which is better: reciting the Qur'an in the Haram or in the hotel to avoid showing off?

Question:
The questioner asks: Which is better, reciting the Qur'an in the Haram seeking the sanctity of the place and the abundance of reward, or reciting the Qur'an in the hotel to avoid showing off?

Answer:
Recite the Qur'an anywhere, in any place other than places for relieving oneself and restrooms. Recite the Qur'an in the hotel, recite the Qur'an on the road, recite the Qur'an in the Sacred Mosque. Reciting it in the mosque is better, and showing off.
Do not leave off an act of worship because you fear showing off. This is from Satan. He tells you, "Do not pray for fear of showing off. Do not give charity lest it be said this is showing off. Do not do anything." This is from Satan. Perform the acts of obedience, in secret and in public.
And make your intention sincere for Allah, and leave the words of Satan, "This is showing off." Do not refrain from doing it in the mosque or in such and such a place out of fear of showing off. All of this is from the whispers of Satan. Perform the acts of obedience, display the good, and be a good example for people. This is not showing off. Showing off is only in the hearts.
