Making an effort to recite the Qur'an in Arabic
Question
My language is Urdu. If I read Quran with Urdu translation, is it necessary for me to read it also in Arabic?
Answer
By reciting the translation one will not receive the same reward as one will receive by reciting the actual words of the Qur'an. Hence you should make a concerted effort to learn how to recite the Qur'an in it's proper manner.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
