The ruling on reciting the Qur'an in the third rak'ah of the Maghrib prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is there any report from any of the Rightly Guided Caliphs that he recited the verse of Allah the Exalted,[Ali 'Imran 3:8], in the third rak'ah of the Maghrib prayer?
Answer:
This is a matter of scholarly disagreement regarding the recitation in the third rak'ah of the Maghrib prayer, or in the last two rak'ahs of the four-rak'ah prayer. The majority hold that one does not recite anything other than Surat al-Fatihah; one restricts oneself to Surat al-Fatihah and does not recite anything from the Qur'an with it. This is the correct position, as it is what is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
