Reciting the Qur'an in Various Circumstances
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, reciting the Qur'an is worship of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), but is reciting the Qur'an valid in whatever state a person is in, whether standing, sitting, lying down, or on his bed?
Answer:
That is what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would recite the Qur'an, and nothing prevented him from reciting the Qur'an except major ritual impurity. He would recite the Qur'an while sitting, walking, riding, and in all his states, just as he would remember Allah in all his states. Yes.
