{"_id":"684b1c16275edb758e65edb8","title":"{\"ops\":[{\"insert\":\"What should I do if my husband always plays the Quran aloud in the house?\\n\"}]}","question":"{\"ops\":[{\"insert\":\"My husband is trying to memorize more Quran, alhamdullilah. I’m glad about this. However, he learns by playing the audio of a surah on repeat, sometimes for hours in a row, in shared space like the car or living room. Since we do not want to interrupt Quran in progress, our whole family feels unable to talk while this is happening. Since I was taught Quran should not be “background noise”, I also feel I cannot do anything else while it’s on. As horrible as it sounds, I often end up feeling trapped. For example, on a long car ride, I’d like to talk to my husband or children, but instead we must all be silent while he practices.\\n\\nWould I be a horrible wife or unsupportive of his working on his Deen if I ask that he wears headphones or practice in a private space so that everything else in the family/house doesn’t have to stop during his practice?\\n\"}]}","answer":"{\"ops\":[{\"insert\":\"You’re not wrong to feel this way. Your concern shows respect for both the Qur’an and your family. While your husband’s effort to memorize the Qur’an is admirable, it shouldn’t come at the expense of others’ time, space, or peace.\\n\\nThe Qur’an isn’t meant to be background noise that puts life on hold. Asking him to use headphones or find private time to review isn’t unsupportive, it’s a respectful boundary that allows everyone to honor the Qur’an without being overwhelmed by it. His pursuit should be mindful and considerate of the people around him too.\\n\"}]}","tags":[{"_id":"668d9fdf0b76658b4c232798","tag":"Quran: Etiquettes","count":63},{"_id":"668da0150b76658b4c232daf","tag":"Relationships: Spouse","count":42}],"createdOn":"2025-06-12T18:27:34.083Z"}
