Makrooh Times for reading Qur'an

 Assalamo Alaykum Honrable Mufti Saheb:

Are there any times during the day or night that one should not read Qur'an?

بسم اللہ الرحمن الرحیم

الجواب وباللہ التوفیق

The recitation of the Holy Qur'an is permissible not with the times but with the circumstances. It is not forbidden to recite the Holy Qur'an at any time of the day or night. However, it is forbidden in some cases such as:

If a man is in a state of impurity due to a wet dream, or intercourse, then “ghusl” becomes obligatory on him or the woman is in a state of menstruation and postpartum, then reciting the Qur'an is forbidden.

قال اللہ تعالیٰ: فَاقْرَءُوا مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ (المزمل:۲۰

فقط واللہ اعلم بالصواب
