Reciting the Holy Quran on the Radio

Question

What is the ruling on reciting the Noble Qur’an on the radio?

Answer

The radio is, in reality, a means for broadcasting particular news, but its use here, if not exactly like [showing] a photograph, is certainly very close to it: it is filled with much idle content — talks of various kinds, verses of various kinds, and every sort of music and singing.
