Question
There is a trend nowadays for the Imaam to recite a very long Surah in the first raka't and a very short Surah in the second raka't. To justify this practice, some quote the Imaams of the Haram Shareef. Is this correct?
Answer
It is improper to habitually recite in this manner. During Jumuah and Eid Salaat, the Qiraa't in both raka'ts should be more or less the same. It will therefore be Makrooh to recite a very short Surah in the second raka't in Jumuah and Eid Salaat.
