Reciting the Ayahs out of order


449

Q 3: Is it not permissible to recite the Ayahs (Qur'anic verses) in a converse order? For example, may I say, "And at the earth, how it was spread out? And at the mountains, how they were firmly set? And at the heaven, how it was raised high? Do they not look."


A: It is not permissible to recite the Qur'an in such a manner. Actually, Ayahs are divinely ordered, and thus one may not recite them in an order different from that of the Qur'an.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
