The ruling on supplication for the completion of the Qur'an and traveling to attend it, and on performing 'Umrah on the twenty-seventh night

Question:
The Shaykh's issue, may Allah enrich you, do you know what happens in many of the Muslims' mosques, and especially in the two Holy Mosques, in this year regarding the going and coming on the night of twenty or twenty of the month of Ramadan every year, and that is for attending the division, and that is for attending the Qur'an. The best people pray the tarawih with what happens of supplication after the opening of the Qur'an and the gathering of the people in this state, until it became a custom with many people. So, is there a part of the Book and the Sunnah regarding that? And the supplication for the opening of the Qur'an and what happens in it of lengthening the supplication and the eagerness for it and the reward, is this from the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?

Answer:
The supplication for the completion of the Qur'an, there is no, I mean, on this characteristic for the prayer, there is no clear evidence from the Sunnah. But the practice of the Salaf was in the time of Imam Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him), and he would pray behind the imam while he was supplicating, and Imam Ahmad would say "Ameen" to his supplication after the completion of the Qur'an, and he said, "I have seen this from those I have seen from the people of the Hijaz and the people of..." He said, Imam Ahmad, as in the book of al-Mu'adhdi, quoting from Imam Ahmad, so it is from the practice of the Salaf or from the practice of some of the Salaf, so it is not to be denied. Denying what is to be denied, but the exaggeration in the completion and lengthening it, this is what is not to be denied. Lengthening it to the point of hardship for the people, this is not to be denied. Rather, one should supplicate with concise, comprehensive supplications that do not burden the people; this is what is required. As for traveling for the sake of shortening the completion, there is no evidence for it, and it may be a bid'ah (religious innovation). But if one travels to come for the 'Umrah, the 'Umrah is prescribed in the gathering in Ramadan, it is better, so performing the 'Umrah is good and prescribed with virtue. As for traveling for the sake of the completion only, this is, in our view, and given that the completion is prescribed or not to be denied for whoever does it due to the transmission of it from the Salaf in the blessed centuries, with this crowding in the Holy Mosque, and even the 'Umrah on the night of twenty-seven, although the 'Umrah is prescribed and recommended, but specifying the night of twenty-seven in the crowding and danger, or that a person loses his work, he will be in the mosque and go and leave the mosque of his country around the 'Umrah and the completion on twenty-seven, this is an excessive effort with no evidence for it.
His remaining in his country, he leaves and performs the tahajjud, and a person who does not perform the imamah, this is better than the kaffarah for the 'Umrah. So how if there are precautions in the 'Umrah from the crowding and danger? Many issues come, they say, "We entered the state of ihram, and when we came, it did not happen, we do not circumambulate, or women, we wore our extra clothes and we returned, we desisted from the 'Umrah." You are wrong, you committed the kaffarah first, and in this state, second, you left the 'Umrah after you entered the state of ihram for it, this is a great error. It is not permissible to refuse the 'Umrah and refuse the ritual after entering the state of ihram for it. One must perform it, but one waits until the crowding subsides. He says to her, "The dispute is on the night of twenty-seven." Be patient until the night of twenty-nine, until the night of thirty, until the entry of Shawwal, and perform the 'Umrah. You remain in your state of ihram until the space opens up and you perform the 'Umrah. As for you refusing it, the state of ihram. Allah the Exalted said: So whoever enters the state of ihram for them must complete them, even if they were originally recommended. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad.
