The Ruling on Speed in Reciting the Qur'an
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Yes. Regarding the second question. We ask about speed in recitation?
Answer:
Likewise, regarding speed in recitation, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade reciting the Qur'an like this poetry, and forbade scattering it like scattering dates, and commanded the recitation to be measured and beautified. Allah the Exalted says to His Prophet: "And recite the Qur'an with measured recitation." He says, Glorified and Exalted is He: "And We have made it easy for you to recite." He should deliver it with good delivery, beautify his voice in it, and pause at the beginnings of verses, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) paused at the beginnings of verses. He should prolong the places of elongation and observe the rules of tajwid (the rules of Qur'anic recitation) as much as he is able. The rules of recitation are so that one benefits from the speech of Allah, so that the speech of Allah has an effect on him, and has an effect on the listener. As for recitation with haste and confusion, it has no effect, along with being disrespectful to the speech of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, and not paying attention to its delivery and performance in the required manner. Yes.
