Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In one of the mosques, on the night of completing the recitation of the Qur'an in Ramadan, the imam and a group from the mosque prepared a pre-dawn meal (suhur) for this occasion and invited the worshippers to it after the prayer. Is their action prescribed?

Answer:
If the completion of the recitation is at the time of the pre-dawn meal (suhur), there is nothing wrong with it. But what if it is at the beginning of the night, when there is no occasion for it? They prepared a dinner for them at the beginning of the night. Yes.
