The Ruling on Reciting the Basmala and Ameen Aloud in Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner asks: Why do we say "Ameen" in the prayer when it is not found in the Qur'an? And why do we not recite[Al-Fatihah 1:1] aloud in the prayer, even though it is found in the Qur'an?
Answer:
Is everything in the Qur'an to be recited aloud, or is it obligatory?[Al-Fatihah 1:1] is found in the Qur'an, but we do not recite it aloud because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not recite it aloud in the prayer, so we follow the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). As for "Ameen," its meaning is "O Allah, accept [our supplication]," because al-Fatihah is a supplication. So when you recite al-Fatihah, you say "Ameen," meaning: O Allah, accept this supplication.
A questioner asks: Why do we say "Ameen" in the prayer when it is not found in the Qur'an? And why do we not recite
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.
