A vow not to miss the opening takbir
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: I made a vow that I would not miss the opening takbir. He says: Illness has made it heavy for me, but I am still maintaining it, and it has become difficult for me. What is the guidance in this matter? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
To vow that you will not miss the opening takbir is being too strict with yourself; you should not have done this. However, strive to move forward to the prayer and be present for the opening takbir. If you miss the opening takbir due to that cause, there is no blame on you, my brother. Perform the expiation for it and do not be too strict with yourself in this matter. Yes.
