A person who has speech disability receiving double reward for reciting Quraan

Q: I have learning disabilities and speaking problems. I find saying zikr or reciting Quran difficult. I don't say zikr or Quranic words correctly, meaning I don't pronounce them the right way. Will I be still rewarded for saying zikr and reciting Quran?

A: Yes, you should go on trying to improve your recitation, and you will be rewarded abundantly. The hadith explains that the one who finds difficulty but continues to try, he will be rewarded with a double reward.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
