Is it permissible to combine reciting the Quran and listening to it attentively to complete a full recitation?

There is no harm in combining reading and listening during a single completion of the Quran, for all of that is permissible. Reciting the Quran contains much good and great reward, and similarly, listening and paying close attention to it contains much good and reward, even if the reward for listening is less than the reward for direct recitation. However, if the intention is for the reader to be listening at the same time they are reading, then this is not permissible because it does not achieve the objective of recitation nor the objective of attentive listening.
