i want to know that listening quran from recorded cassettes will give one the reward of listening.according to the ayah of surah aaraf(204)

Answer

The Qur?aan as played on an audio cassette does not hold the same status as a live recitation. Hence, the reward will not be the same.

However, whilst the cassette is being played, the recitation should be accorded some respect. Either listen to the recitation or switch it off altogether.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
