1. New session, ordinary surah opening: istiʿadhah, basmalah, first verse.
2. New session, opening of al-Tawbah: istiʿadhah; a scholarly view also omits basmalah, so this is not treated as an entirely ordinary surah opening.
3. New session, internal verse: istiʿadhah; basmalah is preferable before the selected verse.
4. Continuing into another ordinary surah: basmalah precedes its opening; the transition into Bara'ah is exceptional.

Choose the correct procedure by identifying whether recitation has just begun or is continuing, whether this is a surah opening or an internal passage, and whether the surah is Bara'ah.
