The ruling on setting recitations and supplications as phone ringtones
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Shaykh Salih, are the recitations and supplications that are used as phone ringtones permissible?
Answer:
It is not appropriate to make the remembrance of Allah, or the Qur'an, or supplications into phone ringtones just to alert one to a call, without any desire for them or hope for their reward, but only to signal the call. One should use a bell or a sound that alerts him to the call for that purpose. Yes.
