I also think Nothing wrong with chant.. cos in the Qur’aan it says
‘‘Ratti lil Quraana tarteelan’’ chant in arabic translates as ‘‘Tarteel’’ from the verb Ratta la. to Recite the Quraan tarteelan ie. chanting, nicly, with tarannum.
eg, Quraan when read in Taraaweeh in the Holy kaaba by the Imam Sheikh al Sudais.. is with Tune and Tarannum ..according tot he verse Ratti lil Quraana tarteelan.
