A brother says that Qur'aan should be recited at home, not in the Musjid.

Question

A brother says that Qur'aan should be recited at home, not in the Musjid. Is this correct?

Answer

The Qur'aan Majeed may be recited anywhere – wherever one feels to recite it –at home or in the Musjid. However, when reciting in the Musjid, it should be recited silently. It is haraam to recite it loudly in the Musjid if there are musallis engaged in Salaat. Also, according to the Hadith, Qur'aan should be recited in the home as well so that the housefolk hear and follow, and the shayaateen flee.
