Completing the Recitation of the Qur'an in the Fajr Prayer

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: We have an imam of a mosque who reads for us in the Fajr prayer from the beginning of the Qur'an, and he wants to complete it in the Fajr prayer. Is this...

Answer:
...an innovation. This is an innovated practice. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not do it. The Companions did not do it. The righteous Salaf did not do it. So we do not innovate anything that those before us from the righteous Salaf did not precede us in. And also, this causes embarrassment for the imams afterward.
The imam becomes obligated to read the entire Qur'an in the obligatory prayers, and that is not fitting for an imam; it causes embarrassment. This is what he who said this did. And the strange thing is that they do not read the entire Qur'an in the tarawih prayer in Ramadan; they find it burdensome, even though it is a recommended practice, yet they do it in what is not a recommended practice, in the obligatory prayers. This is one of the strange things. Yes.
