The Details of the Question
The praying person must hear his/her own voice while performing the "Qiraah" (reading/reciting the Quran). Is this a clear hearing or is hearing the recitation in whisper enough? The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
While performing recitation in prayer, it is necessary to recite with the tongue. Reciting by heart is not considered Qira'ah. What is intended by hearing with ear is reciting with a hearable voice by yourself and without disturbing the person who is near you.
