Summary
Reciting the Quran with the intention of asking for victory for Al-Aqsa Mosque is permissible, as it falls under permitted tawassul. The fatwa identifies two forms: using a righteous deed such as the recitation as an intermediary, and supplicating through the word of Allah and His names and attributes found in the Quran. After reciting, one is encouraged to pray to Allah through the merit of that recitation.
