The answer

Reciting the Quran holds immense virtue, with ten good deeds for every letter, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever recites a letter from the Book of Allah will have a good deed, and a good deed is multiplied tenfold. I do not say that Alif-Lam-Mim is one letter, but Alif is a letter, Lam is a letter, and Mim is a letter."

A Muslim should regularly recite the Quran, but specific times should not be allocated for reading particular surahs unless there is valid religious evidence.

It has been authentically reported that there is encouragement to recite Al-Mulk and Surah As-Sajdah specifically before sleeping. As for the other mentioned surahs, a specific time should not be set for their recitation, as that falls under the category of additive innovations (bid'ah idafiyyah).
