Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is listening to the Noble Qur'an via the radio better, or is it better to glorify Allah the Exalted?
Answer:
Listening to the Qur'an is better. Listening to the Qur'an, paying attention to it, and reflecting on its meanings is better than glorifying Allah. If one glorifies and praises Allah, there is nothing wrong with it; it is all good, if Allah wills. But listening to the Qur'an and reflecting on its meanings, whether from the radio or otherwise, is better because of the great good and great benefit in listening to the Qur'an. Allah the Exalted says: [Al-A'raf: 204]. In that lies great good and great knowledge for whoever reflects, understands, and comprehends the speech of his Lord (peace and blessings be upon him). If one listens at times and glorifies at other times, it is all good. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
