Reading Surat al-Baqarah from a recorded tape and driving away Satan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
His other question says: There is a hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that if a person reads Surat al-Baqarah, Satan will not enter his house, but if the surah is recorded on a tape, does the same thing happen?
Answer:
This does not occur; because the intended meaning is what was said: the one in which it is recited, Satan flees from the house in which Surat al-Baqarah is recited. The intended meaning is recitation with the tongue, whereas reciting a recording is merely a sound.

May Allah reward you,
