Length of one long aayat for qiraat in salaah to be valid
Submitted by user2 on Fri, 2022-12-09 08:00
Q: Besides reading a complete Surah or atleast three ayaats of the Quaran after Suratul-Fatiha in salaat, I understand one long ayaat can instead too be read. But how long should the ayaat be and on what basis is the length calculated?
Which long ayaats (if any) are generally deemed preferable to read?
A: The fuqaha mention that thirty huroof is the least amount that should be read. If one recites qiraat which is less than thirty huroof, then sajdah sahw becomes compulsory upon him.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
