Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the statement of Abu Musa al-Ash'ari to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), "If I had known that you were listening to my recitation, I would have adorned it for you with adornment," does this imply that it is permissible to beautify the voice for other than Allah in the recitation of the Qur'an?

Answer:
He adorned it for the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) as an act of obedience to the Messenger and to prefer what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) loves. This is specific to the Messenger because he wanted to please the Messenger and to have him hear what he loves. Yes.
