The time for completing the recitation of the Qur'an: at the beginning of the night or the beginning of the day

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there any report regarding the recommendation of completing the recitation of the Qur'an at the beginning of the night, or the beginning of the day, or on a day of fasting, such as Thursday or Monday?

Answer:
I do not know of any hadith from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) on this matter. However, the Salaf (the earliest generations) say that in winter, one should complete the recitation at the beginning of the night so that the angels pray for him until morning, because the winter night is long. And if he completes it in summer, it is recommended that he complete it at the beginning of the day, because the summer day is long, so that the angels pray for him throughout the long day. This is a juristic preference (istihsan) of some of the Salaf. Yes.
