The Right Way To Pray
4- Recitation after Suratul Fatiha:

The Prophet  (sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) would recite another soorah after al-Faatihah, making it long sometimes, and on other occasions making it short because of travel, cough, illness or the crying of infants

Notes :

1- You have to read Sura after the Fatiha only in the first two Rak'a in the Zuhr or Asr  but in Fajr,Maghrib and E'sha you just hear the Imam and you should't say it with him.

2- If you tried to memorize this two Suras but you failed .. then there is a permission to read Al-Fatiha only .. and in-Shaa-Allah your prayer is right
