Opening gatherings with the recitation of the Qur'an

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: The school holds gatherings for us, and we are teachers there. One of us wanted to open our gathering with the Qur'an, so a person objected to him and said, "This is not the way of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." What is the ruling?

Answer:
Rather, this is recommended, and the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) used to do it. When they gathered, they would have one person recite from the Qur'an. Sometimes they would have Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) do it because he had a beautiful voice. Yes.
