Reciting one Aayat in Salaah
Question
If one has many years of Qadha salah can one read one ayah per rakah, eg. the starting ayaats of Surah Baqarah, is it sufficient to recite 1 ayah which runs into 1 or 1.5 lines?
Answer
If the aayat had 30 huroof or more, then one can suffice on reciting one aayat. Refer to http://muftionline.co.za/node/2212
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
