May Allah reward you. In his other question, he asks: Is it possible for a person to read a book or do something else while listening to the Noble Qur'an?
The Shaykh:

The questioner:
In his final question, he says:
The Shaykh:
However, there is nothing wrong with slight movements that do not prevent him from reflecting on the Qur'an. As for many movements and heavy tasks that stand between him and reflecting on the words of Allah and bringing his heart to them, then he will not have the reward of one who listens to the Qur'an. Yes.
