All Shiri Granth sahib is a sacred bani, which we can not pratice daily as nitnem. In 1932, S.G.P.C and all sikh scholars of that time (about 70 scholars and 21 Panthic Assocciations)by consulting the writtings of Gurus, old Singhs and History, Sikh Rehat Maryada was passed.

Above 3 banis in the morning
d. Rehras Sahib in the evening

Explanation for Sr. No 2.
There is pratice in Deras that five banis to be read in the morning (those are Japaji Sahib, Jap Sahib,Amrit Savaiye, Anad Sahib, Benti Choupai in the morning, Reharas Sahib including Benti Choupai in the evening and Kirtan Sohila Sahib at night before sleeping. If we see Guru Gobind Singh ji made our life very simple and natural. He cosidered timings avaliable for Family persons ( Ghar-Gharhasti peoples). Ghar-Gharhasti peoples can not devote so much time at home with family life. In Gurudawaras daily First bani recited is Sukhmani Sahib and then Kirtan of Asa Di Var is recited. These both the banis take average time of three hours. So how a Ghar-Gharhastee man can practice these daily.
Deras people have enough time to do these practices.
