Reciting Quraan Shareef and Dalaailul Khayraat daily

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: I was told by a Moulana that is the imaam in my area that I should not recite more then quarter juzz a day because I am not hafidh. The reason being because the quraan is too powerful. I used to recite two juzz a day.

He also told me that I should not read Dalaail khayrat by imaam Jazuli. The reason being because Sahabah never read it but it was compiled long after the time of Sahabah.

I want to know why should I not recite more then quarter juzz a day when some Sahabah and some scholars could recite the entire Quraan in one rakaah, how can someone stop me from reciting the Kalam of my Allah? And what is so bad about reciting Dalaail Khayrat because it is a book on Salawaat upon Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). You can even read about the author of this book on ihyaaud deen at the section of Salawaat.

Bismillaah

A: If you were reading two juz comfortably then continue. You could read Dailaailul Khayraat, however, it is better to read the durood that is reported from Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam). For example, the forty durood and salaam.

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