Permissibility of Reciting More Than One Surah in a Single Rak'ah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for the one praying to recite more than one surah in a single rak'ah, especially in the obligatory prayer?
Answer:
There is no harm in reciting two surahs or more. Some of the imams among the Ansar used to recite al-Fatihah and a surah, and would recite with it [Al-Ikhlas:1]. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) approved of this and asked him about it. He said, "Because I love it." He then told him: In another wording: Sahih al-Bukhari 774b So there is no harm.
It was reported from Ibn Mas'ud that "the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite several surahs, two surahs in each rak'ah, other than al-Fatihah." It is also established from him (peace and blessings be upon him) in the hadith of Hudhayfah that "in some of his night prayer, he recited al-Baqarah, al-Nisa, and Aal 'Imran in one rak'ah."
