Reciting Surah Baqarah in the home

· 18 Jumada I 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I heard a hadith of our Nabi Hazrat Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) that a person should recite Surah Baqarah in the home.

My question is that, can I recite Surah Baqarah periodically, (30% in the morning, 30% in the afternoon and the remaining in the evening) because it is too long to be completed at a single time (morning, evening or afternoon). Is it ok or should I have to recite it at a single time?

Answer

Yes, it is valid.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
