Is it permissible to delay pointing out errors in the vocalization (tashkeel) during Quranic recitation for beginners until the end of the recitation?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The basic principle is the obligation to promptly correct errors to safeguard the Book of Allah. However, there is no harm in delaying the correction of errors until the end if there is an overriding benefit, such as it being easier for the female student or more helpful for her to identify and rectify her mistakes. This is based on the scholars' determination that the Sharia aims to achieve benefits and reduce harms.
