Is it permissible to read a surah a few times in the salah? Submitted by on Sat, 25/04/2015 - 11:17
The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
If an ayah is repeated in a salah or a sura is read twice in a rak’ah or a sura is read in two rak’ahs, the following is considered: If the salah performed alone is a nafilah salah, it is not makruh. However, if it is a fard salah, it is makruh unless someone forgets or if he does not know any other suras.
