The ruling on forgetting to recite a surah after al-Fatihah in prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the listening brothers says: 'Ayd 'Awad from the outskirts of Dhahab asks and says: If I forget to recite a surah after al-Fatihah in one of the rak'ahs of the obligatory prayers, is the prostration for forgetfulness obligatory upon me, or is al-Fatihah sufficient? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
No, it is not obligatory upon you, you owe nothing; al-Fatihah is sufficient. However, the recommended practice (sunnah) is for the imam and the one praying alone to recite something additional with al-Fatihah in the first and second rak'ahs. As for the one praying behind the imam... al-Fatihah is sufficient for him, except in the silent prayers, such as the first and second rak'ahs of the midday prayer (Zuhr) and the first and second rak'ahs of the afternoon prayer ('Asr), where he should recite whatever is easy for him after al-Fatihah, just like the imam. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
