Is it conceivable that the son of the Sufi writer would complete a full recitation of the Quran eight times daily (four during the day and four during the night), as stated in Imam Al-Nawawi's "Al-Tibyan"? And if so, how is contemplation and reflection possible?
Many scholars have stated that some narrations concerning reading the Quran in large quantities in a short time might be a karamah (miracle or divine favor) granted to some righteous individuals, while others consider them exaggerated and unbelievable. It has been reported that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade completing the Quran in less than three nights. Some scholars are of the view that this prohibition applies to regular practice, and that the matter varies depending on the individuals, times, and virtuous places.
