Listening to audio recitation of Quran with its translation
Question
Pictures of Makkah and Madina is not allowed to view in Islam. My question is I hear audio recitation of Quran with its translation. Is that allowed in Islam?
Answer
This is permissible. The prohibition mentioned in the Hadith relates to making or viewing pictures of animate objects.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
