Is it permissible to raise the voice of the Qur'an above the sound of songs to disrupt them?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: If a car driver stops next to me listening to singing at a high volume, and he does not respond to my request to turn it off, is it permissible for me to raise the voice of the Qur'an?

Answer:
Do not mix the Qur'an with the sound of songs. You have forbidden it to him, and you are walking while he is walking. Praise be to Allah, you have forbidden it to him and done what is required of you.
