    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 1497/1497/M=01/1434) The munfarid (one who is offering salah individually) is free whether to recite loudly or slowly in the fardh salah of (Fajr, Maghrib, Isha). However, it is better to recite loudly so that it resembles jamah. وإن كان منفرداً فهو مخير إن شاء جهر و أسمع نفسه لأنه إمام فى حق نفسه وإن شاء خافت لأنه ليس خلفه من يسمعه والأفضل هو الجهر ليكون الأداء على هيئة الجماعة (فتح القدير)

    Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
