وَرَتِّلِ الْقُرْآنَ تَرْتِيلًا
Recite the Qur’an with distinctness (73:4)
اقْرَأْ وَارْتَقِ وَرَتِّلْ كَمَا كُنْتَ تُرَتِّلُ فِي الدُّنْيَا فَإِنَّ مَنْزِلَكَ عِنْدَ آخِرِ آيَةٍ تَقْرَؤُهَا
Recite and elevate! Recite carefully as you used to recite in the world. Indeed, your abode is at (the level of) the last verse you recite. (Sunan Abī Dāwūd)
