question
Can a woman recite Quran in front of non-mahrams?
Concise answer

The Grand Ayatullah Khameneni (may Allah prolong his life):

If it gets their attention and arouses them or causes any other corruption then it will be impermissible, or else, it is permissible.

The Grand Ayatullah Sistani (may Allah prolong his life):

If she knows that a non-mahram man hears her voice it will be haram, if she thins her voice and makes it nice to the extent that it would normally be arousing.[1]

The Grand Ayatullah Makarem Shirazi (may Allah prolong his life):

If she recites with a tune it will be haram.[2]
