The Ruling on Reciting the Qur'an as It Was Revealed and the Duration of the Method

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
There is a hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in which he commands that the Qur'an be recited as it was revealed. What is the duration of the method, and which recitation should one recite?

Answer:
As it was conveyed to you just now, as the reciters conveyed it and the scholars explained it, one recites it with the letters you see. Tajwid is better if one applies tafhim to the emphatic letters, tarqim to the light letters, and ikhfa' to the letters of ikhfa'. If a person masters this, that is better; otherwise, he recites it in the Arabic language. Praise be to Allah. There is no fixed limit, but the best is the minimum amount, and if he recites once a month, that is sufficient.

Question:
I say, Shaykh al-Halabi, that it is permissible to recite in a low voice.

Answer:
If he sees that, it is also permissible, but he should not recite less than three verses. This is what is recommended. Yes.
