Is there a Surah in the Qur'an that must be recited completely and continuously?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Surat Al-Fatihah must be learned in its entirety, due to the obligation of reciting it completely in prayer, based on the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, saying: "There is no prayer for whoever does not recite the Mother of the Quran." There is no other that must be recited completely and continuously outside of prayer.
