Recitation
Suras are recited during the standing portions (Qiyam) of Muslim prayers (salah). Sura Al-Fatiha is recited in every unit of prayer. Some units of prayer also involve recitation of all or part of any other sura. Islamic tradition holds that there are some suras, or parts thereof, that have certain benefits when recited. For example, several hadith recommend reciting sura Al-Fatiha when someone is ill.
