Ruling on Reciting the Qur'an for One Who Does Not Master Recitation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: What is your opinion, Your Eminence, regarding a man who recites the Noble Qur'an but does not recite well because he has not received a sufficient amount of education, and in his recitation he makes clear errors such that the meaning changes with his recitation, and he argues with the hadith of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her): Sunan Abi Dawud 1454Sahih (Al-Albani) the hadith?
Answer: He must strive and be eager to recite it to someone who is more knowledgeable than him, and he must not abandon recitation, because learning increases his good, and the mentioned hadith is an argument for him, and it is the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sahih Muslim 798a narrated by Muslim, and the meaning of: is a lack of knowledge of recitation, and likewise his saying: and it is difficult for him, its meaning is his lack of knowledge of recitation, so he must strive and be eager to learn recitation from someone who is more knowledgeable than him, and in that is great virtue, due to the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): Sunan Abi Dawud 1452Sahih (Al-Albani) reported by al-Bukhari in his Sahih, so the best of the Muslims are the people of the Qur'an in learning, teaching, action, calling, and guidance.
And the intended purpose of knowledge and learning is action, and the best of people is the one who learns the Qur'an and acts upon it and teaches it to people, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: narrated by Muslim in his Sahih, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan an-Nasa'i 2437Sahih (Darussalam) reported by Muslim also in his Sahih, and the meaning is that it is an argument for you if you act upon it, or an argument against you if you do not act upon it.
One who is skilled in the Qur'an
الذي يقرأ القرآن وهو ماهر به..Answer: He must strive and be eager to recite it to someone who is more knowledgeable than him, and he must not abandon recitation, because learning increases his good, and the mentioned hadith is an argument for him, and it is the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
One who is proficient in the Qur'an is associated with the noble, upright, recording angels; and he who falters in it, and finds it difficult for him, will have two rewards.
الماهر بالقرآن مع السفرة الكرام البررة، والذي يقرأ القرآن وهو عليه شاق ويتتعتع فيه له أجرانstammers
يتتعتعThe best among you is he who learns and teaches the Qur'an.
خيركم من تعلم القرآن وعلمهAnd the intended purpose of knowledge and learning is action, and the best of people is the one who learns the Qur'an and acts upon it and teaches it to people, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Recite the Qur'an, for it will come as an intercessor for its people on the Day of Resurrection
اقرأوا القرآن فإنه يأتي شفيعا لأصحابه يوم القيامةthe Qur'an is proof, either for you or against you
القرآن حجة لك أو عليك
