Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Praise be to Allah, and may peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah, upon his Companions, and upon those who follow them. After that, these are some questions we want you, may Allah reward you, to answer. The first question: Is the basmalah recited after al-Fatihah if one intends to recite from whatever of the Qur'an is easy for him?
The Shaykh : If he begins the surah, he recites the basmalah quietly. But if he starts from the middle or the end of it, there is no basmalah. Did you understand the answer?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Okay, anything else?
The questioner : The rest of the question, O Shaykh: If he recites more than one surah, does he recite the basmalah quietly every time?
The Shaykh : Every time. Reciting the basmalah aloud is not valid.
