The Impact of Neglecting the Qur'an for One Who Has Not Read It for Forty Days
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is there a report from 'Umar that he said, "Whoever does not read the Qur'an for forty days has neglected the Qur'an"?
Answer:
By Allah, I do not know; this has not come to my attention. However, the scholars say that it is preferable that a month does not pass without completing a recitation of the Qur'an. This is the minimum. If he completes it every ten days, or every three days, or every seven days, or better, that is even better. Yes.
