Buying and selling Quraan tapes
|
Question:
What is the ruling upon giving preference to some reciters over others in the matter of reciting the Quraan – and recording the Quraan upon cassettes and selling these for money?
|
Answer:
It is permissible to give preference to some of the reciters of the Quraan over others on the basis of the rulings of tilaawat (recitation) and the beauty of the tarteel (slow recital). And it is permissible to record the recitation of the Quraan upon cassettes and to sell these cassettes.
And with Allaah is the tawfeeq. And may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.
