Qiraat in salaah

Q:

1. Is it compulsory to recite Tasmiyyah before Surah Fatiha in the 2nd, 3rd & 4th rakaats of Salaah.

2. If we mistakenly recite Surah Naas in the first rakaat of Salaah, how do we continue with the rest of Rakaats? Will Sajda-e-Sahw be compulsory?

3. If I mistakenly recite a Surah in the second rakaat which is earlier in order to what was recited in the first rakaat, should an additional latter Surah be recited if it is realised within the rakaat?

Muqtadis reciting Surah Faatihah in salaah

Q: In chapter no 7 (Surah Al-Araf) verse number 204 it is stated that "When the Qur'an is read, listen to it with attention, and hold your peace: that ye may receive Mercy". So why do people when praying Fajr, Maghrib and Isha (fardh) behind the imam (first 2 rakahs), when the imam finishes reciting surah AL-Fatiha, many people recite surah fatiha, although the imam is reciting another surah. Please do clarify this.

Reciting a surah or aayaat equivalent to a surah in Salaah

Q: I believe that in a book I read titled, Laws of salah, written by Muhammad Ilyas Attar Qadari Razavi (Dawat-e-Islami) it said on the hundred and fifth page these following words:-

'After you finish surah Fatihah, utter amin in a low volume and then recite either three short ayahs or one long ayah that is equivalent to three short ayahs or any surah such as surah Ikhlas.'

I had a query based on the last line of this paragraph. When it quotes, 'or any surah,' do you think that this is implying that after surah Fatihah has been recited you can recite another surah, or is it suggesting that after surah fatihah you can recite an ayah that is equivalent to another surah, or do you think that it can be referring to both?
