Reciting Aloud in the Secret Prayers and Reciting Quietly in the Aloud Prayers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If the imam recites aloud in the secret prayers, or quietly in the aloud prayers, does he prostrate for forgetfulness?
The Shaykh:
If he was forgetful, he prostrates for forgetfulness. If he was intentional, his prayer is valid, because reciting aloud and quietly are a recommended practice (sunnah) in the prayer. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
The prostration of forgetfulness is also not a misguidance; it is a recommended practice (mustahabb). The prostration of forgetfulness is a recommended practice (mustahabb). If one leaves a recommended practice (sunnah), it is recommended (mustahabb) for him to prostrate for forgetfulness.
