The ruling on reciting the mushaf while lying on one's back or leaning

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on reciting the mushaf while a man is lying on his back or leaning?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that,
remember Allah standing, sitting, orفَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ قِيَامًا وَقُعُودًا وَعَلَىٰ
[An-Nisa 4:103]
on one's side, there is no harm. One recites the Qur'an standing, sitting, riding, and walking; this is what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do. However, it is a condition for the mushaf that one be in a state of wudu'; it is required that one be in a state of wudu'. As for his state, whether standing, sitting, or lying down, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
