Delaying the completion of the Qur'an to Thursday and Friday
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The sixth question of Fatwa No. ( 9328 )
Q6: If a person is consistent in reading the Qur'an — with the success of Allah, and to Him belongs all praise — and completes a recitation in every week or two weeks, the summary is: that if he completes the Qur'an on Tuesday and Wednesday and stops at the Mu'awwidhat and begins with al-Fatihah and al-Baqarah, then when Friday night arrives after the Maghrib prayer, he begins from the Mu'awwidhat from his stopping point and completes and reads the completion between the two nights of Thursday and Friday night, so that, if Allah wills by His mercy, the angels' prayer lasts until morning, as in the hadith. If he reads the completion, he begins reading from his stopping point in the middle of the Qur'an. And the summary: Is delaying the completion to Thursday and Friday an innovation, and does his intention and effort not benefit him? And if he completes, he reads the completion from the hour he completes it, on any day, except that the beginning of the day or the beginning of the night is better. Which is better? If he completes, he reads the completion from his hour in his day.
or does he delay the completion to Friday as I mentioned before? Please inform us of what is best, may Allah reward you with the good of this world and the Hereafter?
A6: It is the Sunnah for him to complete the recitation of the Qur'an, and he should not postpone reading the Mu'awwidhat to Friday or any other day, but rather he should finish the recitation whenever he reaches the Mu'awwidhat. Then he makes supplication with what is in them after praising Allah and sending blessings upon the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him); following the righteous predecessors. Then he returns and starts the next recitation from al-Fatihah, and so on. And success is from Allah. And may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
