Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. You mentioned (may Allah preserve you) that one should not rush in reading the Noble Qur'an, but there is now what is called al-hadr recitation, which is rapid recitation.

Answer:
I did not say that one should not rush. That command was for the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) not to rush when the revelation was being sent down to him, so that it would be complete. As for recitation, there is no harm in rushing, but without distortion and without a speed that causes some of the letters to be obscured. Yes.
