Q: I am a sick man and I had a stroke that left me with a speech defect. I find difficulty in pronouncing the letters of the Qur'an and sometimes the meaning changes. Therefore,
I recite without pronouncing it out loud for fear of mispronunciation.
Am I to be blamed for mispronunciation that results from speech defects?
A:
You can recite the Qur'an according to your ability, for Allah (Exalted be He) says:
So keep your duty to Allâh and fear Him as much as you can
The Prophet (peace be upon him) says in the Sahih (authentic) Hadith: (Part No. 3; Page No. 86)
And anyone who falters while reciting the Qur'an, and finds it difficult for him, will have a double reward.
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
