When we pray 4 rakat fardh, on the 3rd rakat I made a mistake I started praying a surah on the 3rd rakat after fatiha – I realised nearly towards the end but didn’t know whether I was meant to stop reciting and continue and say Allaahu Akbar and go into rukhoo or finish off the surah. So I finished off the surah and then continued. In this instance what are we meant to do?

ANSWER:
There’s no problem in reciting another surah after fateha in 3rd and 4th rakahs.
