Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani
Is it a confirmed sunna to complete the Qur’an in tarawih prayers?
Answer:

The fatwa in our times is that it is sunna to recite the amount that will not lead to people staying away from the congregation, because having a larger congregation is superior to lengthy recitation, even though the basic position of the madhhab is that it is a confirmed sunna to complete the Qur’an in Ramadan. Ibn Abidin explains that this is a change in fatwa because of changed times. [Ibn Nujaym, al-Bahr al-Ra’iq; Shaykh Zada, Majma` al-Anhur; Haskafi, Durr al-Mukhtar; Ibn Abidin, Radd al-Muhtar]
