Reciting the Qur'an with vocal modes

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling on reciting the Qur'an with vocal modes, in terms of tajwid and recitation? And did our father, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), say to Abu Musa al-Ash'ari:
You have been given one of the mazamirأوتيت مزمارا من مزامير
Sahih al-Bukhari 5048
?

Answer:
These modes did not occur except among the Sufis; they are not well known. These are terms coined by the Sufis. The Qur'an is recited as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions recited it, and as those who came after them recited it. We do not follow newly invented methods; we do not follow newly invented methods. This is an innovation in the religion. The Qur'an has been made easy, praise be to Allah. Do not say something you cannot do, or recite with what you are able to do, and praise be to Allah for what Allah has given you of a good voice. Abu Musa was granted a good voice by Allah. So if Allah has granted you a good voice, this is a blessing. Allahu Akbar.
