It is recommended in the favored times, such as the month of Ramadan, especially the nights in which we search for Laylatul Qadr (the Night of Majesty), that we should increase the recitation of the Qur�an to obtain the benefit of this time in this month.
On the first night of Ramadan, Imam Bukhari (may Allah have mercy upon him) used to gather his companions and lead them in the Prayer. He used to recite twenty verses in each rak�ah (i.e. a unit of prescribed movements and words followed by Muslims while offering prayers to Allah) and so forth until he finished the whole Qur�an. He also recited from half to one third of the Qur�an at the time before daybreak (Sohoor), so as to finish the entire Qur�an by the time he broke the fast every night. He used to say, �At each time of finishing the Qur�an, there is an accepted invocation that Allah will fulfill.� [ Sifat Al-Safwa (4/170).]
It was narrated on the authority of Al-Shafe�y that he finished reciting the entire Qur�an sixty times in Ramadan, besides those recited in his prayers. [ Sifat Al-Safwa (5/255).]
