The correct answer in the matter is to say that the reward for reciting recitation and contemplation is greater and higher in value, and the reward for frequent recitation is greater in number. The first is like one who gives alms of a great jewel or frees a slave whose value is very valuable, and the second is like one who gives alms with a large number of dirhams or frees a number of slaves whose value is cheap.

The meaning of rewinding is to improve the recitation, not to rewind the singing, because reading by rewinding the singing contradicts humility, which is the purpose of recitation, and melody is also meant to improve recitation, and the intent is not the melodies of the people of singing, nor the affectation in improving the voice with the Qur’an.
معنى الترجيع تحسين التلاوة لا ترجيع الغناء لأن القراءة بترجيع الغناء تنافي الخشوع الذي هو مقصود التلاوة واللحن أيضا يعنى به تحسين التلاوة وليس المقصود ألحان أهل الغناء ولا التكلف في تحسين الصوت بالقرآن
الشيخ محمد بن أبي جمرة
▶ Al-Shamail Al-Muhammadiya | Episode (29) | Chapter on what was mentioned in the recitation of the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him
Whoever contemplates the conditions of the predecessors will know that they are innocent of artificiality in recitation with invented melodies without natural appliqué and improvement. For the truth, if it has a nature and character, is to be praised, even if its nature helps it to further improve and beautify, so that the next and the listener will be affected by it. As for what involves pretentiousness and artificiality in learning the sounds of singing and specific melodies, these are what the predecessors and the pious ones from behind hated.
ومن تأمل أحوال السلف علم أنهم بريءون من التصنع في القراءة بالألحان المخترعة دون التطريب والتحسين الطبيعي فالحق أنما كان منه طبيعة وسجية كان محمودا وإن أعانته طبيعته على زيادة تحسين وتزين لتأثر التالي والسامع به وأما ما فيه تكلف وتصنع بتعلم أصوات الغناء وألحان مخصوصة فهذه هي التي كرهها السلف والأتقياء من الخلف

As for his crying, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, it was like his laughter. It was not inhaling and raising a voice, just as his laughter was not guffawing, but his eyes would shed tears until they fell down and his chest would be heard wheezing. His crying was sometimes out of mercy for the dead, sometimes out of fear for his nation and pity for it, sometimes out of fear of God, and sometimes when listening to the Qur’an, and it was a cry of longing, love, and reverence accompanying fear and apprehension.
وأما بكاؤه صلى الله عليه وسلم فكان من جنس ضحكه لم يكن بشهيقٍ ورفع صوت كما لم يكن ضحكه بقهقه ولكن كانت تدمع عيناه حتى تهملا ويُسمع لصدره أزيز وكان بكاؤه تارةً رحمةً للميت وتارةً خوفاً على أمته وشفقة عليها وتارة من خشية الله وتارة عند سماع القرآن وهو بكاء اشتياق ومحبة وإجلال مصاحب للخوف والخشية

The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, used to accept with his face and speech the most evil of people, making them so, so he used to accept his face and speech against me until I thought that I was the best of the people, so I said, “O Messenger of God, I am better,” or Abu Bakr said, “Abu Bakr,” and I said, “O Messenger of God, I am better,” or Omar said, “Omar,” so I said, “O Messenger of God, I am better,” or “Uthman,” Othman said.
