during the life of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him), i.e., gathering to do this, but itis Sunnah in
the shar'i sense."

Completing the Qur'aan inRamadaan, whether during prayer or outside
prayer, is something that is praiseworthy. Jibreel (peace be upon him)

reviewed it with him twice.
And Allaah knows best.
