The answer

It is permissible to sell and buy copies of the Qur’an according to the Shafi’i, Maliki, and Hanafi schools of thought, who cite the saying of Ibn Abbas: "There is no harm; they take wages for their labor," and because the sale pertains to the permissible leather and paper. If it is permissible to sell copies of the Qur’an, then selling recordings of the Qur’an is even more permissible, as the name "" does not apply to them, and ritual purity is not required to touch them. Every profit resulting from a permissible transaction is permissible.
