Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is also a woman who says: I am an illiterate woman who spends most of my time, both day and night during Ramadan, listening to the Holy Qur'an radio. Do I receive reward for this, knowing that I have benefited greatly from learning matters of my religion through this listening and have memorized some of the surahs?
Answer:
This is a good deed. Listening to the Holy Qur'an radio and its various religious and educational programs is a great good. A person is rewarded for listening to these programs with the intention of benefiting from them and with the intention of learning knowledge. This falls under learning beneficial knowledge. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2646Sahih (Darussalam) Sahih Muslim 2699a
So this is one of the paths to beneficial knowledge, and a person is rewarded for it, receives reward for it, and benefits from it. We desire listening to the Holy Qur'an radio and its various programs. It is a blessing from Allah that Allah has bestowed upon the Muslims in this land and elsewhere.
The merit in this, after Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), is due to the authorities in this land, for they are the ones who strove to establish this program. So they have its reward and the reward of everyone who acts upon it. It is a good sunnah (recommended practice). If other Muslims follow their example and establish such programs, they will have established a good sunnah in Islam, and they will have its reward and the reward of everyone who acts upon it. Yes.

من سلك طريقا يلتمس فيه علماAllah would make that path easy, leading to Paradise for him
