Question

Is it compulsory to recite Surah Fatihah in the third and fourth rakat of farz salaat. I have read somewhere that its not compulsory when reading salaat individually without jamaat.

Answer

No.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
