Question:
Abu Khalid says: Honorable Shaykh, what books does Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan (may Allah preserve him) recommend for mosque imams to read during the 'Asr and 'Isha' prayers and after the tarawih?
Answer:
In any case, if the mosque imam is one of the scholars, he explains the verses to them and interprets the verses, and explains the hadiths from what Allah the Exalted has taught him. As for if he is not able to do that, and is not one of the scholars, he reads from reliable books, such as Riyad al-Salihin, and al-Targhib wa al-Tarhib by Imam al-Mundhiri. He reads to them from these books. Yes.
