Qiraat in Salaah

Q: When performing namaaz, in the second rakaat before you say Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim, do you have to say Audhubillahi Minashaytanir Rajim first? Just like the first rakaat?

Q: I am a Sunni Hanafi. While praying four rakaat sunnah, I recite Surah Mutaffifin. I recite first 6 ayahs is first rakaat, ayahs 7 to 17 in second rakaat, ayahs 18 -29 in 3 rakaat and ayahs 30 to 36 in the last rakaat. Am I doing it correctly? Kindly advise.

Q: I just wanna ask about the sunnat-e-muakadah before fardh of zuhr. I should perform it with salaam at the end and now my question is on the third rakaat am I only going to recite fatiha and also in the forth rakaat just like praying fardh or I should recite another surah in the third rakaat and another surah in the last rakaat after faatiha?

Q: Is it permissible to read surah qadr in the first rakat of salah and surah bayyinah in the second. What is the number of aayats that make a surah longer than another one?

Q: In the second rakaat of any Salaah, can a longer Surah be recited compared to the Surah recited in the first rakaat? Or must the Surah recited in the first rakaat always be much longer than that recited in the second rakaat? If so, on what basis should the length of a Surah be determined? 

Q: In a four rakaat sunnah salaah, if a person reads Surah falaq and naas in the first 2 rakaats, is it fine to read surahs before that thereafter, such as Surah wal aadiyaat and qariah?

Q: In a 4 rakaat Sunnah salaah, if in the first 2 rakaat one reads e.g. 1 page in each rakaat. Is it fine in the 3rd and 4th rakaat to read 1.5 pages? I.e more than the first two.

Q: Our local Imaam recites long Surahs in Maghrib Salaah and very short Surahs in Esha Salaah. My understanding is that it should be other way around. Please advise the correct procedure especially in the light of the sunnah of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam).

Q: Is it permissible to read the same ayaat of the Quran in ones Salaah? E.g. A person learnt sabak, and wants to make it strong, would it be permissible to read the same sabak in all four rakaat of Sunnats?

Q: Should we recite any Surah after Surah Faatiha in the 3rd and 4th rakaat of Sunnat Ghair Muaqqadah, Sunnat Muaqqadah and Farz Salaah?
