The answer

Among the etiquettes of listening to the Quran are contemplation and attentive listening, as Allah Almighty says: "And when the Quran is recited, then listen to it and pay attention that you may receive mercy." This verse, although specific to prayer, its general wording encompasses all times. It is recommended for a Muslim to revere the Quran and protect it from anything that does not entail its respect. It has been narrated from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "Whoever listens to a verse from the Book of Allah will have a doubled good deed, and whoever recites it, it will be a light for him on the Day of Resurrection." Some of the Salaf said: "Mercy does not reach anyone faster than it does the listener of the Quran." If you are not listening to the recitation, then it should be turned off. There is no text that prohibits intimacy during the listening to the Quran, but if the Muslim is preoccupied from contemplating the Quran, then he should turn off the device, whether during intimacy or otherwise.
