What is the average monthly rate for reading books on Islamic law, and what is the proportion of specialized to general books read?

It is not possible to determine a specific daily or monthly reading rate, as this varies depending on individuals, their circumstances, and the type of reading (memorization or general perusal). A student of knowledge should focus on books related to their specialization and also allocate time for general reading. The Salaf (pious predecessors) used to read portions of the Qur'an daily, and some scholars would read a large number of books during holidays. The advice is to utilize time for beneficial reading, especially the Noble Qur'an, and to peruse books such as: "Al-Himmah: Tareeq ila al-Qimmah" (Perseverance: A Path to the Summit), "Safahat min Sabr al-Ulama" (Pages from the Patience of Scholars), "Qimat al-Zaman 'inda al-Ulama" (The Value of Time According to Scholars), "'Uluw al-Himmah" (Exalted Ambition), and "Sina'at al-Hayat" (Crafting Life).
