Sunan an-Nasai 1662 (Book 20, Hadith 65) #16273
Reciting the Quran Loudly and Silently

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) used to recite the Quran both loudly and silently.

It was narrated that Abdullah bin Abi Qais said: "I asked Aishah: "How did the Messenger of Allah recite at night- did he recite loudly or silently?" She said: 'He used to do both; sometimes he recited loudly and sometimes he recited silently'."
أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَيْسٍ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ كَيْفَ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ بِاللَّيْلِ يَجْهَرُ أَمْ يُسِرُّ قَالَتْ كُلُّ ذَلِكَ قَدْ كَانَ يَفْعَلُ رُبَّمَا جَهَرَ وَرُبَّمَا أَسَرَّ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet Muhammad recited the Quran. According to Abdullah bin Abi Qais who asked Aishah about it, sometimes he would recite loudly and other times he would recite silently. This shows us that we should be flexible in our worship of Allah; sometimes we can be loud in our prayers or recitations of the Quran while other times we can be quiet. We should also remember that when we are reading or reciting from the holy book of Allah -the Qur'an- it is important to do so with respect and reverence for its words. It is also important to take time out of our day to read from it as a way of connecting with Allah and seeking guidance from Him.
