Reciting the Quraan Sharif in Taraweeh Salaah against the normal sequence
Question
Will it be acceptable if a person who is making a Khatam of the Quraan in Taraweeh, to skip one or two Paras and read another para ahead, and then come back to the skipped Paras?
Some Apas that teach Hifz, instruct the students to alternate by reading a Para (that is well learnt) and a Para (that is weak), is this appropriate?
Answer
The Quraan Sharif should be recited in sequence in Taraweeh Salaah, as is written in the Quraan Sharif. The method prescribed by the Apas is Makrooh and should be discarded.
