How often should one recite the entire Qur’an as advised by the Prophet?
A
The Prophet (ﷺ) said (to `Abdullah), “Fast three days a month.” `Abdullah said, (to the Prophet) “I am
able to fast more than that.” They kept on arguing on this matter till the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Fast on
alternate days, and recite the whole Qur’an once a month.” `Abdullah said, “I can recite more (in a
month),” and the argument went on till the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Recite the Qur’an once each three days.”
