Completing the Recitation of the Qur'an in Ramadan and Praying the Obligatory Prayer Alone

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And you prayed the obligatory prayer alone; is it possible for him to do what he does with the people?

The Shaykh:
If he does it in the obligatory prayer, may Allah have mercy on him.

The questioner:
O servants of Allah.

The Shaykh:
I testify that you have not noticed the completion of the Qur'an in Ramadan. Yes. Completing the Qur'an in Ramadan means: as is made easy, as is made easy according to the ease, it should not be burdensome for the people, truly it should not be burdensome.

The questioner:
Is this obligatory?

The Shaykh:
How many workers? What Allah willed, yes. And it is without a cause, so it is without a cause, and even if he does not complete it, it is according to [his capacity], the important thing is to make it light, and even if he does not read half the Qur'an or a third of the Qur'an, if completing it is made easy, there is no harm.

The questioner:
May Allah reward you, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
Glory be to Allah.
