Q 2: What is the ruling on the Salah (Prayer) of an Imam (the one who leads congregational Prayer) who
recites one of Ayat-ul-Sujud (Qur’anic verses of Prostration) and then performs the Ruku‘ (bowing) without continuing the recitation of the Ayah?
A:
Only a complete Ayah or more can be recited in Salah after Surah Al-Fatihah. It is not sufficient to recite part of an Ayah, because Allah (Exalted be He) says:
So, recite you of the Qur’ân as much as may be easy for you.
Reciting part of an Ayah is not considered a recitation, although if someone does it, their Salah is valid, because it is not obligatory to recite a Surah (Qur’anic chapter) after Al-Fatihah. (Part No. 5; Page No. 344) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
