As-Salāmu `Alaykum (السلام عليكم):
What is disturbing that modern day Muslims have access to all Allah and his Nabi Muhammad (
) has directed and provided as an example and we continue to innovate. Islam doesn't require any additions. Just follow. Discontinue the bidah (innovation)
The daytime prayers are all silent (not audible) with the exception of Jummah and Janazah salat.
Surah Al-Isra 17:110
110. Say (O Muhammad
): "Invoke Allah or invoke the Most Beneficent (Allah), by whatever name you invoke Him (it is the same), for to Him belong the Best Names. And offer your
Salat (prayer) neither aloud nor in a low voice, but follow a way between.
(

Instructed by Allah and shown how to perform the Salat by Jibril (AS)
Surah An-Najm 52:1-10
1. By the star when it goes down, (or vanishes).
2. Your companion (Muhammad
) has neither gone astray nor has erred.
3. Nor does he speak of (his own) desire.
4. It is only an Inspiration that is inspired.
5. He has been taught (this Qur'an) by one mighty in power [Jibrael (Gabriel)].
6. Dhu Mirrah (free from any defect in body and mind),
Fastawa [then he (Jibrael - Gabriel) rose and became stable]. [
Tafsir At-Tabari].
7. While he [Jibrael (Gabriel)] was in the highest part of the horizon,
8. Then he [Jibrael (Gabriel)] approached and came closer,
9. And was at a distance of two bows' length or (even) nearer,
10. So did (Allah) convey the Inspiration to His slave [Muhammad
through Jibrael (Gabriel)].

Sahih Bukhari

Narrated Abu Ma'mar:
I asked Khabbab whether the Prophet used to recite the Qur'an in the Zuhr and the 'Asr prayers. He replied in the affirmative. We said, "How did you come to know that?" He said, "From the movement of his beard."

times a verse or so was audible to us."
