Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner says: I prayed behind an imam, and then it became clear to me that he follows the Ash'ari school of jurisprudence. Is it obligatory for me to repeat the prayer?
Answer:
No, it is not obligatory for you to repeat the prayer. However, the second time, go to an imam who is not Ash'ari, to an imam from the people of the Sunnah. And what you prayed is valid. Yes.
