*One should neither recite nor touch the Qur’an except in a state of purification.
* One should use Siwak to clean his teeth before recitation.
* One should wear his best clothes.
* One should face the direction of prayer (Qiblah).
* One should pause his recitation when yawning.
* One should not interrupt his recitation and speak, except if necessary.
* One should be attentive to what he is reciting.

* One should pause at a verse mentioning punishment and seek refuge in Allah from that punishment.
* One should not leave the Qur’an opened, nor place anything on it.
* One should not raise his voice when reciting to the extent that he confuses other adjacent recitors.
