Repeating a Surah in the Loud Prayers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner from Senegal says: The imam of the mosque, or the imam of our mosque there, in the loud prayers, recites the verse from Surat al-Baqarah
O mankind, worship your Lordيَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اعْبُدُوا رَبَّكُمُ
[Al-Baqarah 2:21]
then he recites al-Ikhlas and repeats it three times. Is his action prescribed?

Answer:
No, it is not prescribed. Repeating a surah is not prescribed. Reciting part of one surah and then reciting a second surah is also not prescribed. He should continue reading from one surah, from its beginning, its end, or its middle, just one surah, and it is not permissible to take from this one and that one. Yes.
