القرآن الكريم

It is permissible for the reciter of the Qurʾān to say, upon completing his recitation, “Ṣadaqa Allāh al-ʿAẓīm,” intending thereby to praise Allah, Most High, with that by which He has praised Himself, as He says: “Say: Allah has spoken the truth; so follow the religion of Ibrāhīm, a man of pure natural belief—he was not of the idolaters” [Qurʾān 3:95]. Praising Allah is permissible at all times and in every circumstance. Uttering this phrase following recitation does not constitute a bidʿa nor a contravention of the Sharīʿa; rather, it entails reverence for the Qurʾān and proper etiquette before Allah, the Exalted.
