Beat that!

This is something for all the students of the Qur'aan to ponder and think about. How long does it take you? Imaam Nawawi writes in his book at-Tibyaan fee aadaab hamalatil Qur'aan:

It is befitting to make special time for the tilawah of the Qur'aan and increase in it.

It was from the practise of the salaf - may Allah be pleased with them - that they used to finish the Qur'aan within different periods of time.

 Ibn Abee Dawuud reports that some of the salaf used to finish one khatam (complete Qur'aan) in two months.

Others use to finish one khatam every month.

Some used to finish one khatam within ten days the likes of Hasan al-Basri. And some every eighth day such as the noble companion Ubayy bin Ka'b.

A great portion of them used to finish the Qur'aan within a week, people such as 'Abdullah bin Mas'uud and 'Alqamah bin Qays etc. 

Some finished every six days such as al-Asuud bin Yazeed and others every five days.

A portion of them used to finish the Qur'aan every  four days such as Aboo Dardaa'.

And even a greater portion used to finish the Qur'aan every three days like 'Abdullah bin 'Amr.

Some every two nights such as 'Ataa bin as-Saa-ib. And a big portion of them used to finish the Qur'aan every day like 'Abdullah bin Zubayr.

Some even finished the Qur'aan twice, meaning every night and day! Such as 'Abdur-Rahmaan bin al-Qaasim.

Some finished the Qur'aan three times a day, whereas others finished the Qur'aan eight times a day, four khatams during the day and four during the night.

As for those who used to finish the Qur'aan every day and night were the likes of 'Uthmaan bin 'Affaan, at-Tameem ad-Daariyy, Sa'eed bin Jubair, Mujaahid, ash-Shaafi'ee amongst others.

Ibn Abee Dawuud reports with an authentic chain that Mujaahid used to finish the Qur'aan once during Ramadan between magrib and isha.

Some of the Taabi'een used to finish two khatams between magrib and isha during the month of Ramadan.

And it has also been reported that many of the salaf used to finish the entire Qur'aan in one raka'ah these were people like 'Uthmaan bin 'Affaan, at-Tameem ad-Daareyy  and Sa'eed bin Jubair.

Passing away in Ramadhaan

Question: The Prophet said;
When Ramadhaan arrives the doors of Paradise are flung open and the doors of Hellfire are slammed shut.
Does this mean that one who dies in Ramadhaan enters Paradise without questioning? Answer: The situation is not as such. Rather, what this means is the doors of Paradise are flung open as an inspiration to the Muslims to make easy their entry (to Paradise). And the doors of Hellfire are shut to prevent the Believers from sins such that they do not enter (through) these doors. And this does not mean that one who dies in Ramadhaan enters Paradise without questioning, rather those who shall enter Paradise without questioning are those whom the Messenger has described in his statement;
They are the ones who do not steal and do not cauterise and are not pessimistic and in their Lord they put their trust.
[Fataawa Shaykh Muhammad as-Saalih al-Uthaymeen Volume 1, Page 561]
