Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how do we reconcile the command of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to raise the voices in the talbiyah, with his saying (peace and blessings be upon him)
Restrain yourselves, people; you are not supplicating one who is deaf or absentاربعوا على أنفسكم إنكم لا تدعون أصم ولا غائبة
Mishkat al-Masabih 2303


Answer:
Excessive raising, as for the usual raising, that is the sunnah (recommended practice), but the excessive raising that strains the person, that is what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited.
