Is it permissible to stop reciting Surat Al-Kahf and Surat Al-Mulk due to the inability to ponder them as a result of repeated recitation?

Reciting Surat Al-Kahf on Fridays and Surat Al-Mulk before sleeping are prescribed acts. The claim that repeating the recitation prevents contemplation is a deception from Satan. The wonders of the Quran never cease, and it does not wear out with frequent repetition. Allah may open up an understanding through abundant and repeated recitation that would not be achieved otherwise. The most beloved deeds to Allah are those that are continuous, so one should not cease a good deed that a servant has become accustomed to.
