The Ruling on the Collective Recitation of the Noble Qur'an

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh Yusuf, what is the Shaykh's view (may Allah preserve him) on reciting the Qur'an collectively after the Fajr and Maghrib prayers, with an explanation of the issue based on evidence? This is because some people rely on certain statements by previous scholars regarding the permissibility of collective recitation? Is there a criterion for collective recitation?

Answer:
As far as I know, no one among the reliable scholars has said that collective recitation is permissible. Rather, this is among the bid'ah (religious innovations) and newly invented matters, and each person recites alone, separate from the others. Yes.
