Is reciting the Basmalah aloud a recommended practice?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Ha. The Basmalah.
Answer : Reciting the Basmalah aloud is not a recommended practice (sunnah) because the evidence for it is recent and weak. However, if you pray behind an imam who recites it aloud, follow him and do not deviate. That is, do not deviate by saying, "This is an innovator (mubtadi') imam, so I will not pray behind him."
