Setting a Qur'anic verse as a mobile phone ringtone

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We are repeating, Shaykh, the issue of setting verses as ringtones. The verse may be cut off before the reciter has finished it. Is this permissible? The ringtone might be a verse, and then one opens the phone before the verse is complete. Likewise, in some offices or some homes, there is someone reciting a verse, and the verse is cut off before the phone is put down, and then it is answered before the verse is completed.

Answer:
Likewise, the verse is not set for recitation, but only for notification, to notify of a call. It is not set for recitation, nor for seeking reward, but only for notification. So the best thing is to set something as a notification that is not a verse, not music, not the honored and respected verse, and not the forbidden music. He sets a notification that contains nothing of this or that. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
