Which is better: reciting the Qur'an in the mosque or at home?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is better, O Shaykh, for the one praying behind the imam: reciting the Qur'an in Ramadan in the mosque or at home?

Answer:
Reciting the Qur'an is done in whatever place is suitable and convenient for him, whether in the mosque or at home. Reciting the Qur'an in the mosque is better, because it is the place of dhikr (remembrance of Allah) and the place of reciting the Qur'an. Also, there is tranquility there and the angels are present. Reciting the Qur'an in the mosque is better, and reciting it at home also has merit, as by doing so he drives the Shaytan out of his home. Yes.
