Does reading Surat al-Ikhlas three times count as completing the recitation of the Qur'an?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Does the one who reads Surat al-Ikhlas, which is considered equal to one-third of the Qur'an, does the one who reads it three times count as having completed the recitation of the Qur'an?

Answer:
No, he has not completed the recitation of the Qur'an; rather, he has read al-Ikhlas. However, in terms of reward and recompense, it is equal to one-third of the Qur'an. As for it being equal to one-third of the Qur'an in the sense of being the amount of ten parts, no, it is about one and a half lines, yes. But it is great in meaning, yes.
