Quraan During Ramadan

....it is essential for the person fasting to recite the Qur'aan much 
during these blessed days and honorable nights.



Article: Reading the Quraan in Ramadaan
By Shaykh ’Abdullaah Ibn Saalih al-Fawzaan
Short essay outlining some of the "heart-warming ahaadeeth about reciting the Qur`aan in and outside of Ramadaan."

Excerpts: 
'Abdullaah Ibn 'Amr (raa) reported that the Messenger of Allaah (saws) said: "The fast and the Qur'aan will intercede for the servant on the Day of Judgement. The fast will say: 'My Lord, I restricted him from food and drink, so allow me to intercede for him.' And the Qur'aan will say: 'I prevented him from sleeping at night, so allow me to intercede for him.' So they will be allowed to intercede."
Therefore, it is essential for the person fasting to recite the Qur'aan much during these blessed days and honorable nights. For indeed, there is a special virtue for the abundance of recitation in these days, which is not found in any other month. He should take advantage of the nobleness of time during this month, in which Allaah revealed the Qur'aan.
The predecessors of this ummah would recite the Qur'aan constantly during Ramadaan. And when they would fast, they would sit in the masaajid and say: "We will guard our fast and not backbite anyone."
They would recite the Qur'aan in their prayer and out of it. 'Uthmaan (raa) would complete the recitation of the (whole) Qur'aan once a day. And some of the Salaf would complete it during their qiyaam in Ramadaan every three nights. Some of them would do it every seven days and some every ten days.
