The answer

The maximum reasonable period for completing the recitation of the Qur'an is forty days. Exceeding this is disliked because it may lead to forgetting the Qur'an and abandoning it. Reciting the Qur'an within this period, whether during prayer or outside of it, is considered fulfilling its right, although recitation during prayer carries a greater reward.
