Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on one who instructs his companions to make a chart in the form of whether he prayed the midday prayer and the other prayers in the mosque by placing a checkmark if he prayed?
Answer:
This is with Allah; it is Allah who holds people accountable, not him. But he commands prayer, encourages it, and rebukes the one who lags behind or is lax. As for their reckoning, that is with Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He). Yes.
