The ruling on completing the recitation of the Qur'an in one month or more

Question:
After this, a message was received by the program from Libya, sent by one of the female listeners. She says: Your sister, Umm al-Rahman, writes her name and says that she is a woman who prays, fasts, and reads the Qur'an, praise be to Allah, and she also works to earn her livelihood. However, she is unable to complete the recitation of the Qur'an in one month or two months, and perhaps even longer, even though she intends to do so. How do you advise her? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Completing the recitation of the Qur'an is among the recommended practices. Everything that is done in a short time is better; if one completes it in a month, or every ten days, or in every stretch of time, all of this is better. However, it is not obligatory. The better and more desirable course is not to exceed one month, so that there is one completion of the recitation every month. This is the best, and one should not go beyond that and lose out by taking two or three months. Because this is among the recommended practices, not among the obligations. May Allah reward you with good.
