Does the ma'mum say "Subhanak" when the imam praises Allah in the supplication?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: When the ma'mum hears the imam praising and thanking Allah, for example saying, "None is exalted whom I have wronged," does the ma'mum say "Ameen," or does he say "Subhanak"? This is what most people say.

Answer:
Yes, that is correct. When the praise of Allah comes, one says "Subhanak," and when the supplication of request comes, one says "Ameen." You know that supplication is of two types: supplication of worship, which is praising Allah, and in this one does not say "Ameen"; and supplication of request, in which one says "Ameen."
