Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. You mentioned (may Allah preserve you) that the follower says the takbir quietly. So, for example, if it is Friday and the electricity goes out, is it permissible for the follower to raise his voice in the takbir so that the people behind the imam can hear it?

Answer:
This is a temporary situation. We said this is a temporary situation. There is nothing wrong with one of the followers making the intention and announcing the takbir and the transition in the prayer to the people, yes.
