How Much Qur’an Should One Recite?
The believer should aim to complete the recitation of the Qur’ān at least once a month, as per the narration under the chapter entitled ‘How much of the Qur’an should be recited?’ in Sahih al-Bukhārī, whereby the Messenger of Allah ﷺ advised ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr ibn al-‘Aās (radiy Allāhū ‘anhumā): “Recite the entire Qur’ān in a month…”
The hadīth continues: ‘Abdullah (raḍiy Allāhu ‘anhu) responded: “I can do more than that! The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Recite it in twenty days” He responded: “I can do more than that.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Recite it in fifteen.” He responded: “I can do more than that” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Recite it in ten! He responded: “I can do more the than that.” So he ﷺ said: “Recite it in seven and do not do more than that.” (Abū Dāwūd)
