Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: I read in one of the biographies of Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) that he used to recite in the third rak'ah of the Maghrib prayer the words of Allah the Exalted:[Ali 'Imran 3:8] the verse. I am committed to this practice, so is my action correct?
Answer:
I do not know; this requires verification of this report. It is well known that the recitation after al-Fatihah is in the first two rak'ahs of Maghrib and other prayers.
