Movement in general, not just rocking but tapping a pencil, moving the chair, walking around, doing cartwheels, or whatever... movement.

Doing cartwheels? while reciting Qur'an? Lol.

Looks a bit strange to me! Is this Sunnah? Doesn't one get a headache, dizzy head, backache with all that rocking? You wouldn't read a normal book like this would you... How do you keep your eyes on the Arabic text?

It's not something I do - but if you can give me a source for it - I will start doing it.

A lot of people rock back and forth subconsciously when doing any type of dhikr. Its not a sunnah, nor is it impermissible. I try to avoid it, but still sometimes catch myself doing it every now and then. I dont want it to become a habit, it just looks weird to me.
