Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is it permissible for me to write down some of the benefits and lessons from the Friday sermon while the sermon is being delivered and the imam is on the pulpit?
Answer:
No. Stop moving and talking, and listen. Do not write. Whoever touches the pebbles has invalidated the prayer. The one who writes on the ground while the imam is delivering the sermon has invalidated it. And whoever invalidates it has no Friday prayer. So do not move or do anything, whether writing or otherwise. Yes.
