I recently joined a islamic organisation who are involved in various social projects for the downtroden muslims in India. However, when joining, a person held my hand to recite after him.

even when i’m reciting the Qur’an alone at room, a whisper comes to my mind that persons are listening to my recitation so i have to recite it well or correct my pronunciation or recite it fluently so that they will know that i know how to recite Qur’an fluently.
