Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Sometimes in the loud prayer, I begin reciting al-Fatihah while the imam is still reciting the opening supplication. Is this correct and prescribed?
Answer:
It is not permissible. If you begin al-Fatihah in order to free yourself to listen to the imam’s recitation, there is no harm. You may recite al-Fatihah before the imam or after the imam, if you are able. Yes.
