The reward for one who follows the reciter in the mushaf when he does not know how to recite

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I do not know how to read the Qur'an, so I listened to a recording and followed the reciter with the mushaf. Am I considered a reciter, and do I receive this reward?

Answer:
You receive the reward to the extent of what you did; there is no doubt about that. Listening to the Qur'an is an act of worship, and following it is an attempt to study the Qur'an, but it is not sufficient. If you find a teacher, study with him and do not rely on learning from the recording alone; learn from a teacher. Yes.
