Question:
Honorable Shaykh, it was mentioned that the Salaf used to leave the lessons and religious sermons and devote themselves to reciting the Noble Qur'an. Is this correct, Honorable Shaykh?
Answer:
Yes, the righteous Salaf and the scholars, when the month of Ramadan entered, would bring out the mushafs and sit in the mosques reciting the Qur'an. They would leave the teaching circles until after Ramadan, knowing the virtue of this month and knowing that this is better than seeking knowledge and attending lessons. Devoting oneself to this month and worshipping through reciting the Qur'an in the mosques is better. Therefore, they would focus on sitting in the mosques and reciting the Qur'an, and they would postpone the lessons until after Ramadan. Yes.
