Does playing the Holy Quran in the house, especially Surat Al-Baqarah, result in gaining blessings and expelling Satan, even if no one is listening to it?
Reciting the Quran and listening to it both carry immense reward. There is no harm in playing a Quranic recording, even if no one is listening, especially if it is for Surat Al-Baqarah, as it expels devils from the house, in accordance with the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Indeed, Satan flees from the house in which Surat Al-Baqarah is recited."
