A Guide to the Legitimacy of Supplication After Completing the Recitation of the Qur'an
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Well, our Shaykh, please allow us a query. Someone might say: Since the reference is the evidence, and it is not established that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made supplication after completing the recitation of the Qur'an, how can it be said to be a recommended practice?
Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not pray tarawih with his Companions every Ramadan, nor did he read the entire Qur'an in tarawih in Ramadan. Rather, this is something the Companions did after him, and the righteous Salaf did it. And reading the Qur'an is required, and the supplication is also required. Both are prescribed.
