Answers: 13Subcategories: 2Recitation in Prayer
Do You Have to Recite Bismillah Before Every Surah?
If you are reciting the Surah after Al-Fatihah from the beginning, then you should say the Basmalah (Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim) apart from Surah At-Tawbah. If you are reciting from the middle of a Surah, then it is not recommended to recite the Basmalah.116,705Correcting the mistakes of the imam’s recitation in a soorah other than al-Fatihah

21,042Should We Recite al-Fatihah behind the Imam?
Reciting al-Fatihah is one of the essential parts of the prayer. If you are following an imam, there are two scholarly opinions: 1- reciting al-Fatihah behind the imam is obligatory; 2- the recitation of the imam is also the recitation of the one who is praying behind him.333,377He recites the soorah after al-Faatihah quietly so that the congregation can recite al-Faatihah
