Playing the Quran out loud during work


Question:

Is it permissible to play the noble Quran on a recorder during work?

Answer:

If it happens that it is being listened to and or there is silence and there is no speech taking place then there is no problem with that, Allah says:

{وَإِذَا قُرِئَ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانُ فَٱسۡتَمِعُوا۟ لَهُۥ وَأَنصِتُوا۟ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُونَ}

“So, when the Quran is recited, listen to it, and be silent that you may receive mercy.” [Surat Al-A’raf 204]

As for if the Qur’an is playing and they are talking or laughing or they are distracted, then it is not permissible.
