The Meaning of Singing the Qur'an and a Woman Singing It
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Sister Maryam from Abha says: What does the hadith about singing the Qur'an mean, O Shaykh? Is it permissible for a woman to sing the Qur'an? Is it specific to men?
Answer:
Reciting the Qur'an with melody means improving one's voice with the Qur'an and having a good delivery. This is what is meant by reciting the Qur'an with melody. It applies to both men and women, but a woman should not raise her voice so that men can hear her, to avoid fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good and bless you.
