Ruling on facing the qiblah while reciting the Qur'an

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it obligatory to face the qiblah when reciting the Noble Qur'an?

Answer:
It is not obligatory. No, one may read wherever his face is. Facing the qiblah is better; if he faces it, that is better. There is no blame on him if he reads with his face turned away from the qiblah; there is no harm in that. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you.
