Question:
The questioner says: I pray the regular voluntary prayer first, and then the Fajr prayer. I recite in both of them Subh al-alam and al-Ikhlas. After that, I pray the morning prayer of two rak'ahs. Is this correct?

Answer:

As for the rawatib of Fajr, he recites in the first, "Qul ya ayyuha al-kafirun," and in the second, Surat al-Ikhlas, or in the first,
