Ibn Taimiyyah (ra) described a 29 day schedule for completing recitation of the Qur’an closer to the way the Companions did that.
He said:
“…Division by complete surahs takes precedence over division by parts [based on letter count].” (412)
And from the great advantages of division by complete surahs, he mentioned (414):
- Reciting speech whose parts are connected, one part with another;
- Beginning [one’s daily recitation] with that which Allah began a surah with;
- Finishing with that which He finished with;
- Completing what was intended [to be completed] from every surah.
The chart in Arabic below, shows Ibn Taimiyyah’s recommended schedule for a 29 day completion.
