Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on saying "Ameen" behind the imam?
Answer:
It is a recommended practice (sunnah) to say "Ameen" when the imam finishes reciting al-Fatihah. The imam and all the followers say "Ameen," because al-Fatihah is a supplication. Al-Fatihah is entirely a supplication; it is a supplication of worship and a supplication of request, from its beginning to its end. So one says "Ameen" to this supplication, and saying "Ameen" to a supplication is among the causes of its being answered. Yes.
