Question Rank:

Is there a difference between reciting a dua and listening to it being recited? For instance, if I listen to Dua Ahd for forty days from a player instead of reciting it myself, will it still have the same thawab as if I were to recite it? If someone recites Dua Kumayl and I listen to him without reciting it myself, will I receive the same thawab the reciter of the dua receives or I would have received if I had recited myself?

Allah (swt) is aware of the inside of His servants, but at the same time, He has said that He likes it when they actually verbalize their needs and supplications and that such entails great rewards. Therefore, it is better not to replace reciting duas with listening to them just because it may be more convenient. Of course if there are certain problems that may prevent one from reciting or harden the process, and even in normal circumstances, listening to duas with focus and humility can have a positive impact and near one to Allah (swt), bringing him great blessings, nevertheless, it can't be said that for those who can do it, reciting is equal to listening of duas in reward.
