Recording Women’s Qur’an Recitation

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

Question: Is it permissible for women to be Qur’an reciters and record a CD? Wouldn’t this involve marriageable (non-mahram) men listening to her voice?

Answer: In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful

I pray this finds you in the best of health and spirits.

I asked Shaykh Akram Abd al-Wahhab al-Mawsuli, a leading Iraqi jurist, and he said that unless the recordings were specifically for women—and clearly labelled and distributed as such—then they are to be avoided.

And Allah alone gives success.

Wassalam,
Faraz Rabbani
