Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him),
Satan runs away from the house in which Surah Baqara is recited.إن الشيطان يفر من البيت الذي تقرأ فيه سورة البقرة
Sahih Muslim 780
, is the intended meaning that Surat al-Baqarah is to be recited in its entirety in the home to drive out Satan, or is there no harm in reciting whatever is easy of it?
