Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Does one recite the Basmalah quietly in the second rak'ah before al-Fatihah?
Answer:
Yes, the Basmalah is recited at the beginning of every surah. This is a sunnah (recommended practice) in prayer and in other contexts, except for Surat al-Baqarah, where the Basmalah is not recited before it, because it was not revealed before it.
