Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh!

The Shaykh : Yes?

The questioner : If a person is reciting from memory, he looks, O Shaykh, at the Qur'an!

The Shaykh : From memory, looking?

The questioner : No, from memory, I mean, and then he made a mistake in a verse.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : For example, instead of saying, "And Allah is the Mighty, the Wise," he said, "And Allah is the Forgiving, the Merciful," and he knew of his mistake but did not go back and continued the recitation. Does he commit a sin?

The Shaykh : It appears that if it is recent, he must go back. But if he did not remember until, for example, after he bowed or something similar, then it appears!

The questioner : What does he do? The recitation is normal, O Shaykh!

The Shaykh : By Allah, it appears he must go back. If it is recent, he must go back, without doubt.

The questioner : His statement that he goes back to recite the same verse?

The Shaykh : No, he only recites the one in which he made the mistake.

The questioner : Does he do it deliberately, O Shaykh, with slowness?

The Shaykh : Yes, with slowness.

The questioner : And the one who remains silent, O Shaykh!
