Summary
There is no objection to dividing the Quran recitation, whether one juz per person or in another way. The Prophet did not prescribe a specific method for completing the Quran, so Muslims are free to choose one because it is a matter open to ijtihad. The fatwa also explains that completing the Quran means finishing all 30 juz, and that a gathering to mark its completion carries virtues such as the descent of mercy and answered supplication.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kesimpulannya, tiada halangan untuk membahagikan bacaan Al-Quran samada sejuzuk seorang atau selainnya.
