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.
In our view, it is permissible to listen to Surah Al-Kahf [Quran 18] before reciting it on Friday as both listening and reciting the Quran are legislated acts of worship.
For more benefit, please refer to Fataawa 86933 and 84014.
Allaah Knows best.
