Moderation in Recitation Between Whispering and Raising the Voice
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the reward for recitation the same in secret and aloud?
Answer:
The Sunnah in this is moderation: not raising the voice to the point where it burdens people, and not whispering to the point where it is hidden from people, just as came in the hadith: that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered 'Umar and ordered al-Siddiq to moderate in their recitation. So the Sunnah is to recite in a way that benefits him and benefits those present, and does not burden him. If he sees that whispering is more humble for his heart and more beneficial for him, he whispers with it. And if he sees that raising the voice is more beneficial for him and more humble for his heart, he raises his voice with it, on the condition that he does not harm any of the people. As for if he is among the worshippers or among the reciters, he does not raise his voice over them, as it burdens them and disturbs them. It is established from him (peace and blessings be upon him) that he went out one day to the mosque and there were people praying in it; one man was praying with two rak'ahs and another was praying with three. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Each of you is conversing with Allah, so let none of you raise his voice over the other." And in a wording:.
The point is that the reciter should seek to avoid harming his brothers, whether they are worshippers or reciters. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
