Is it correct that it is narrated from the Salaf that they used to complete the recitation of the Qur'an in one night?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : That he recites the Qur'an in one night.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : Let's open this up.

The Shaykh : This is possible. It is mentioned regarding 'Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) that he used to complete the recitation of the Qur'an in one night in a single rak'ah, and this is not far-fetched. However, what the Rafidah mention regarding 'Ali ibn Abi Talib is that he used to complete the recitation of the Qur'an between Maghrib and 'Isha', and they consider this one of his virtues. The Shaykh al-Islam said to them: How ignorant and how foolish you are! You make playing with the Qur'an one of the virtues of 'Ali ibn Abi Talib?
The one who reads thirty parts of the Qur'an from after Maghrib until 'Isha, and wants to perform wudu' for Maghrib, and prays, and recites dhikr, and prays the rawatib, yes, and then reads the entire Qur'an, thirty parts, within one hour, is this a virtue or a blame?
This is a blame. He mentioned this in his book Minhaj al-Sunnah, which is a great book. I mean, if it were possible to summarize this book, it would be beneficial, and it would reveal the ignorance and foolishness of the Rafidah. Yes, indeed. Yes. Do not summarize al-Dhahabi; he is nothing.
