The ruling on repeating the imam's words when loudspeakers are present
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In some large mosques, the one praying behind the imam repeats the imam's words even though loudspeakers are present?
Answer:
There is no need for this as long as a loudspeaker is available, for it is the loudspeaker that conveys the words. Repeating the imam's words is only done if the worshippers cannot hear the imam because of their large numbers and there is no loudspeaker, meaning that he is the one conveying it. Yes.
