Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on reciting the Noble Qur'an at a condolence gathering, where portions (ahzaab) are distributed to the attendees to recite?

Answer:
Answer: This is a religious innovation (bid'ah), a heinous innovation. The Qur'an was not revealed to be recited at condolence gatherings, or at memorial ceremonies, or at unlawful gatherings. The Qur'an is exalted above such things.
