Recitation in Prayer

Question :

Is it permissible to recite some Verses from one Surah in the first Rak'ah of the prayer and to recite some Verses from another Surah in the second Rak'ah, or to recite some Verses from a long Surah in the first Rak'ah and then one of the short Surahs in the second Rak'ah?

Answer:

It is preferred to recite a complete Surah in the first Rak'ah and a complete Surah in the second Rak'ah, shorter than the first Surah, even if it is not the following
Surah. But it is permissible to break the Surah into two parts, reciting half in each Rak'ah, just as it is permissible to suffice oneself with the beginning of a Surah, the end of a Surah or some Verses from the middle of a Surah, according the general meaning of the Words of Him, the Most High:
So recite you of the Qur'an as much as may be easy for you.
- although it is better to recite the complete Surah.
