Reciting surahs out of sequence in salaah

· 28 Jumada I 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My question is regarding the order of recition of Surah's in namaz. We are students and I was the imaam for fajr. In first rakat, after Surah Faatihah, I recited Surah Nasr and in the second rakat, after Surah Faatihah I recited the first 3 verses of Surah Mulk. Was the namaz totally wrong and needed to be offered again?

Answer

It is makrooh, but the namaaz is valid. There is no need to repeat it.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
