Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The questioner : How are your news?
The Shaykh : If Allah wills, well. What do you have?
The questioner : What are these buttons?
The Shaykh : What matters to you? What do you have?
The questioner : Yes, the first question.
The Shaykh : There is no first and second.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : The first is sufficient for you. If you have a group of questions, choose the most important ones from them.
The questioner : Ah, some people ask: if a person praying reads several verses in the first rak'ah, let us say fifty verses from Surat al-Baqarah, and he is praying alone and wants to move to another surah, Surat al-Imran, and reads fifty verses from the middle of it, what does he say when he separates this surah from the one that follows it?
The Shaykh : What does he say?
The questioner : Ah, I mean, for example, does he seek refuge, or does he recite the basmalah, or does he say Allahu Akbar and Alhamdulillah? We need the stronger position here from the Sunnah.
The Shaykh : What I understood from your question is that he first read verses from a surah.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Then he moved to other verses from another surah.
The questioner: Perfect.
The Shaykh : Like this?
The questioner : Exactly.
The Shaykh : Okay, if he began his recitation with al-Fatihah first, as is presumed, with seeking refuge, then with the basmalah.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Then, if he began the recitation from the middle of the surah.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Then he is not required to seek refuge or recite the basmalah.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Likewise, if he moves from those first verses he read after al-Fatihah to other verses from another surah.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Likewise, he is not required to seek refuge or recite the basmalah.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Unless he begins the surah, in which case the basmalah is necessary.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh: Is the answer clear?
The questioner : I mean, if he begins Surat al-Baqarah with the basmalah after al-Fatihah.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Okay.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : He moves to al-Imran, the first thing...
The Shaykh : He does not read, no seeking refuge, no basmalah.
The questioner : No basmalah.
The Shaykh : Yes. You said reciting the basmalah in this case.
The Shaykh : How?
The questioner : You said a moment ago, when does he recite the basmalah, or does he not recite it at all?
The Shaykh : At the beginning of the surah, my brother.
The questioner : I know. At the beginning, he seeks refuge, then recites the basmalah, then reads al-Fatihah.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Then he moves and says from the beginning of Surat al-Baqarah.
The Shaykh : He read the basmalah.
The questioner : He read the basmalah.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : Here he reads from the beginning of Surat al-Baqarah.
The Shaykh : He reads the basmalah.
The questioner : As for the one who started in the middle of al-Baqarah and moved to the middle of al-Imran.
The Shaykh : This is what I answered you.
The questioner : He does not read anything.
The Shaykh : He does not recite the basmalah.
The questioner : No.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : And the other question.
The Shaykh: No.
The questioner : That is it.
The Shaykh: Peace be upon you.
The questioner : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The questioner : How are your news?
The Shaykh : If Allah wills, well. What do you have?
The questioner : What are these buttons?
The Shaykh : What matters to you? What do you have?
