The ruling on repeating Surat al-Fatihah in prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: If I repeat Surat al-Fatihah more than once in a single unit of prayer, knowing that I want to reflect upon it, is there any sin on me for doing so?
Answer:
It is better not to repeat it. Some scholars said: It is disliked to repeat it. If you want to repeat it, do so outside of prayer; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not repeat it, nor did the Companions; so you should not repeat it. However, outside of prayer, if you want to repeat it for contemplation and understanding, even many times, there is nothing wrong with it. It or any other surah, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
