Reciting from the qisaar-e-mufassal in Maghrib Salaah

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Our local Imaam recites long Surahs in Maghrib Salaah and very short Surahs in Esha Salaah. My understanding is that it should be other way around. Please advise the correct procedure especially in the light of the sunnah of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam).

Bismillaah

A: Your understanding is right. The Maghrib should be from the qisaar-e-mufassal and Esha should be from the awsaat-e-mufassal.

And Allah Ta`ala knows best

ويسن ( في الحضر ) لإمام ومنفرد ذكره الحلبي والناس عنه غافلون ( طوال المفصل ) من الحجرات الى آخر البروج ( في الفجر والظهر و ) منها الى آخر لم يكن ( أوساطه في العصر والعشاء و ) باقيه ( قصاره في المغرب ) أي في كل ركعة سورة مما ذكر (الدر المختار 1/ 539-541)
