when going to sleep at night i like to play recitation on computer, it just calms and eases me, and that's how i go to sleep, but then while once talking about it a brother told me its not right to sleep while listening to quran , so i stopped but then another brother told me its ok to do so they both have different reasoning but i am wondering if someone knows what the correct ruling is.

JazakAllah khair

I'm your brother
Now you see this is how mazhab are created. Islam is simple to practice, I don't think we need a fatwa on this, go ahead listen to Quran if it help you to sleep unless someone can proof it is wrong with daleel.

I have the same habit as you. I usually listen to Al Qur'an MP 3 and I feel so piecefull. It makes me calm. I think it's all right to do it. But I don't know what the ulemas say about it.

Well, for the time being save your self from the doubtful matter by follow the Sunnah
which is in the reading of the "adkar before sleep" (Fortress of the Muslim)

and

the selected Surahs such as As-Sajdah(before sleep) and Al-Mulk(anytime after magrib) and the last 2 verses of Surah Al-Baqara.

Follow the Sunnah !!

Seeking Allah's Mercy

Qul HuwaAllahu Ahud!
Asalamoalaikom wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh,

What is the ruling on listening to Qur’aan before going to sleep, whether from a cassette player or some other means, so that the Muslim will end his day with remembrance of Allaah?.

Praise be to Allaah.

There is nothing wrong with a Muslim listening to Qur’aan before he sleeps, or listening to a lecture or anything permissible. Indeed it is narrated in the saheeh Sunnah that among the adhkaar to be recited before going to sleep are some du’aa’s and verses and soorahs from the Qur’aan.

Al-Bukhaari said:

Chapter: Seeking refuge with Allaah and reciting Qur’aan when going to sleep

It was narrated from ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) that when the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) went to bed, he would blow into his hands and recite the Mu’awwadhaat, and wipe his body with them.

Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5960.

It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) appointed me to guard the zakaah of Ramadaan, and someone came and started to rummage in the food. I took hold of him and said: “I am going to take you to the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)”… And he said: “When you go to your bed, recite Aayat al-Kursi, and you will have ongoing protection from Allaah and no devil will come near you until morning comes.” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “He spoke the truth even though he is a liar; that was a devil.”

Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3101.

Listening to Qur’aan before going to sleep and after, during Ramadaan and at other times, instills tranquility in the heart and helps one relax. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“verily, in the remembrance of Allaah do hearts find rest”

[al-Ra’d 13:28]

And Allaah knows best.
