Which is better for standing in night prayer: reciting the Qur'an in order until completing a recitation, or choosing?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Peace be upon you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: In standing in night prayer, is it permissible for us to read from the beginning of the Qur'an and complete it, or do we read one night from its beginning and another night from its end without order? What is the ruling?

Answer:
If so, all of it is permissible. Arranging the Qur'an in standing in night prayer is better so that you complete it. And if you read every night a surah or verses without order between the surahs or between its beginning, end, and middle, there is nothing wrong with that.
So recite what is easy from itفَاقْرَءُوا مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنْهُ
[Al-Muzzammil 73:20]
, Allah the Exalted says
So recite what is easy from itفَاقْرَءُوا مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنْهُ
[Al-Muzzammil 73:20]
. This is in standing in night prayer, yes.
