Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it permissible to cry during prayer when moved by hearing a Qur'anic verse?

This is good, it is part of humility. This is good. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to cry during prayer, and the Companions used to cry. Yes.
