Question: What is the ruling for the person who repeats the recitation of Surah Faatiha? Meaning when he finishes it once, he recites it once again?
Answer: It is not allowed to knowingly repeat Surah Faatiha, since this has not be reported from the Prophet. And he said;
Whoever introduces anything new into our affair (i.e. Islaam) that which is not from it, then it will be rejected. [Bukhaaree]
However the Salaah is still correct, and such a person should be given sincere advice (to stop it) so that he does not repeat this practise.

It refers to inside salah, if you read surah fatiha in the beginning of your salah, and instead of reading another surah afterwards you start surah fatiha once again in the same raka’ah.
