Should a Muslim persevere in reciting surahs for which there are hadiths mentioning their فضائل (excellences), such as Al-Mulk, Al-Dukhan, and Al-Waqi'ah, while abandoning other surahs?
The Quran and Sunnah emphasize the recitation of the entire Quran and prohibit abandoning it. The command to recite the Quran is general, and authentic hadiths have specified certain surahs with particular merits, such as Al-Fatiha, Al-Baqarah, Al-Imran, Al-Kahf, Al-Ikhlas, Al-Mu'awwidhatayn, and Al-Mulk. Reciting any part of the Quran carries great reward, and a good deed is rewarded tenfold. It is commendable to regularly recite the surahs that have been emphasized every night, and all of the Quran is good and commanded to be recited.
