Abandoning Sūrah al-Ikhlāṣ or al-Kāfirūn While Reciting Them
Issue No.903- If after al-fātiḥa, somebody begins reciting sūrah al-Ikhlāṣ or al-Kāfirūn, he cannot abandon it and recite another sūrah. However, if in Friday prayer, he recites one of these two sūrahs, he can abandon them and start reciting sūrah al-Jumu‘ah and sūrah al-Munāfiqūn, provided that he has not recited half of them.
