Seeking Refuge When Reciting Verses in Daily Adhkar and the Friday Sermon
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Shaykh, he says: When I recite the morning and evening adhkar, is it prescribed for me to seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan when I repeat the verses?
The Shaykh:
Yes, if he wants to recite a surah or a verse from the Book of Allah, he should seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan. Allah the Exalted said:[An-Nahl 16:98] Yes.
The questioner:
Shaykh, is it prescribed for the Friday preacher, when he recites a verse during his sermon, to also seek refuge from the accursed Shaytan?
The Shaykh:
That is a good thing. The verse is general, so if you recite the Qur'an, seek refuge in Allah. This is general for the sermon, the exhortation, and the recitation.
