The ruling on consistently reciting Surat al-Mulk in prayer

Question:
He also says: I read something about Surat al-Mulk and the virtue of reciting it, and I am consistent in reciting it daily in the 'Isha' prayer. Is this practice permissible?

Answer:
There are mentions of the virtue of Surat al-Mulk, as cited by Ibn Kathir and others. There is no doubt that it is a great surah with great virtue. The entire Qur'an is great, and all of it carries virtue and reward, but some of it is more distinguished than other parts. Therefore, Surat al-Mulk has virtues as mentioned in the hadiths. As for making it a fixed habit to recite it in the obligatory prayer or in the voluntary prayer, there is no evidence for this. However, a Muslim may recite it without making it a fixed habit; he may recite it in prayer, or outside of prayer, without a fixed schedule, at a specific time, or in a specific state, but rather he recites it as it becomes easy for him to do so. May Allah reward you with good and do you well.
