Qiraat

Total number of rakaats in the Fardh, Sunnat and Nafil of Zuhr Salaah

Q: Could you please specify how to read all the rakaats of Zuhr Salaah:

E.g. Zuhr - Four Sunnah (Surah Faatihah and a Surah in all four rakaats) then four fardh (Surah Faatihah and a Surah in the first two and in the second two, only Surah Faatihah), then is two Sunnah (Surah Faatihah and a Surah in both rakaats) and last for Zuhr is two nafl (Surah Faatihah and a Surah in both rakaats).

Omitting Surah Faatihah in the third or fourth rakaat

Q:

1. During the fardh salaah of Zohr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha, can the imam omit Surah Fatiha in the 3rd/4th rakat (when there is time constraints)? Stand for 3 subhanallahs before going in ruku.

2. Also, when one is performing Salah individually can one omit for the same reasons?

3. What is the status of Surah Fatiha in 3rd and 4th rakaat? i.e. Fardh, wajib, mustahab etc.

4. Is there any hadeeth to support?
