Is prayer valid in a mosque where the Qur'an is not fully recited in the Tarawih prayer, but rather one moves from one surah to another without completing them?

It is permissible to pray Tarawih behind an Imam who recites different surahs and does not complete the entire Qur'an, as completing the Qur'an in Tarawih is a recommended act, not an obligation.
