Recitation and Listening to the Quraan

Q:

1. Please advise on how to recite Surah al-Muzzammil for the sake of increase in Rizq and barkat.

2. What can be recited and blown into food for barkat therein?

Q: In the masjid where I learn tajweed of Quran, it is a common practice that the one entering the masjid says salaam and does musaafaha with everyone present there, even if the person is busy in recitation of Quran. Should the person reciting the Holy Quran answer to his salam and do musaafaha with him?

Q: I have read a few pages of the Quran with translation but can I now read it without translation because it takes me too long and sometimes I don’t understand?

Q: I'm in a habit of reading ruba (quarter) para daily. One alima told me that if there's no ruku sign at the ruba (quarter), then I must not stop at the ruba (quarter), instead I should continue till the point where the ruku sign is. I wanted to inquire if it is so?

Q: Is it sinful to not want to listen to the Quran right before an exam because you fear that listening to it might cause you to forget some of the stuff you are trying to memorize for the exam? Would it take one outside of Islam to think that the Quran could cause any sort of harm? Obviously, harm can only occur with the permission of Allah, but I mean thinking that the reason for the harm could be the Quran?

Q: If I am paak i.e. I am not in a state of janabat but the clothes that I am wearing are the ones on which the janabat inpurities is there so whether in this scenario can I recite Quran sharif by heart i.e. (muh zabaani)?

Q: Is it permissible to recite the Qur'aan Majeed when the satar is exposed?

Q:

1. Can we recite the Quran without wudu when we know the surahs by heart, i.e. without touching the Quran?

2. If yes then does the same rule apply to surahs in which there is an aayat of sajdah?

3. Also, should we perform sajdah?

Q: After reciting any Quranic verses my body is reacting very awkwardly. It has never happened before. My head and upper body starts shaking and moving in a circular direction. The more I try to focus on the verses, the more badly my body shakes. I tried it once when I was outside the house, and at that time I almost felt breathless like air could not pass through my windpipe. I have been having weird kind off nightmares as well. I am really intrigued by why all this is happening to me. I really don't know what I am going through. When I don't recite any verses, I feel a bit okay but when I do, my head keeps shaking in a circular way.

Q: Can you please give me your transliteration of verse 24 of Surah SORD in the 23 Juz of the Quraan Shareef. I feel certain your transliteration will answer my question.
