Failing to Maintain Sequence when Reciting the Surahs in salaah

Q: Salaah-146: The Imaam recited Surah Kaafiroon in the first Rakaah of salaah and Surah Kowthar in the second. Will salaah be valid by reversing the sequence of the Surahs in this manner?

Answer: Because maintaining the sequence of Surahs is Waajib (compulsory) when reciting the Qur'aan and not when performing salaah, reversing the order in salaah will not necessitate Sajdah Sahw. While it is Makrooh to do so intentionally, doing so unintentionally will not be Makrooh. And Allaah knows best what is most correct.
