The Ruling on Reciting the Qur'an in the Style of Vocal Melodies

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks and says: What is the ruling on reciting the Qur'an in the manner of musical modes that have become widespread now?

Answer:
This is not permissible. Reciting the Qur'an must be done in the manner in which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions recited it. As for reciting it in the style of singers and vocalists, this is not permissible. This is a barrier against it. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
