Reciting the Qur'an at the beginning of gatherings to seek blessing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on reciting the Qur'an at the beginning of a gathering, in the sense of seeking blessing, such as in gatherings of knowledge or at conferences, for example?

Answer:
That is a good thing. The Companions used to do this in their gatherings. They would ask Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) to recite, because he had a beautiful voice.
