Question
Is it permissible for me to memorize the Quran with the recitation from Qaaloon, taking into account that I am Egyptian and I memorize according to the recitation of Hafs. Until now, I finished chapter two only, so hall I continue memorizing according to the narration from Qaaloon?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.
Memorizing the Quran according to the recitation from Qaaloon, while having memorized some of it according to the recitation from Hafs in permissible; this is whether or not the people in your country recite according to the recitation for Qaaloon. Nonetheless, if you lead a congregation in prayer, then do not recite according to Qaaloon, if this will cause an affliction among the people as they do not know it. It is enough that you recite it for your own self and to the person who is teaching it for you or for whomever wants to learn if from your.
Allaah Knows best.
