If I pray 'Isha' and I am accustomed to reciting specific verses after al-Fatihah, what is your guidance?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: If I pray 'Isha', I am accustomed to reciting specific verses. In the first rak'ah, I recite the end of Surat al-Baqarah, and in the second rak'ah, I recite the end of Surat al-'Asr.

Answer:
Fixing oneself to a specific surah or specific verses is not desirable, unless a person is not proficient in the Qur'an except for that specific set of verses. If he is not proficient in anything else, he repeats them. However, if he is proficient in other parts, he should not persist in reciting them; rather, he should lengthen the recitation with whatever Allah has made easy for him. Yes.
