Do muslims HAVE to read the quran in arabic?

  • From 9-10 my mom put me with a teacher and all i learn is in arabic, then from 10-13 there was a gap of not learning the arabic and i forgot it, now my mom puts me with a teacher and from 7:30-4 i have school and 4-5 i have arabic and i dont even learn anything about arabic but just how to read it, i dont even know what a single word means, but my mom says that everyone HAS to read it in arabic first, arabic is the first language of the quran, but when i read it i dont evn know what i am reading, i just want to stop wasting all this time learing something that i dont even know thats happening i just want to read it in english but my mom just gets mad everytime... can someone tell me if i HAVE t oread it in arabic, i want an answer from a muslim

  • Answer:

    Yes, it is best to read it in its original language. You get more reward. Translations will never be the same as the original, but you can read translations to get an idea of what the message is. I don't understand Arabic either, but I learned how to read Arabic first, and now I read the translations. Insha'allah, when I have time I am going to take classes on Arabic so I can understand the original.

only if they're reading out loud I think if they read silently it can be in any laguage, but ask in the Ramadan section they will know.

probably, they don't only utter arabic nonsense every now and then when talking about islam even though it's not a requirement, in addition they also feel that saying "peace be upon him" everytime somebody says "muhammed" and wearing a burqa despite no commandment in the qu'ran to do so is completely necessary! what a religion of blind copycats, eh?

Bhai the reason why people say to red qur'an in arabic is thats the closest language to allah subhana talah in these times but the main thing is to understand what allah subhana talah wants us to know it doesnt matter wat language u read in as long as u understand and dont mis interprit the meaning

prophet said, Learn the Quran and read it because whoever learned the Quran and read it and did Qayam with it is like a bag filled with Musk whose fragrance is spread everywhere and whoever learned the Quran and slept that is he did not do Qiyamul Layl is like a bag which is filled with Musk and its mouth has been closed

Very few Muslims can read it in the original Arabic. Best is wait 'til you are older, then turn atheist, & migrate to a proper country.

You English is very bad I see you cannot learn Arabic.
