The ruling on the imam and the ma'mum asking for blessings and seeking refuge in Allah during the prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In the obligatory prayer, if the imam passes a verse of blessing, does the ma'mum ask Allah for blessings, and likewise the imam? And likewise for verses of punishment, does he seek refuge in Allah?

Answer:
In the voluntary prayer, there is nothing wrong with it. This was reported from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the imam and the ma'mum. But he does not say it aloud. Rather, he supplicates between himself and Allah in a voice that the person next to him does not hear, so as not to disturb him. As for the obligatory prayer, this was not reported. It was not reported that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) would stand and seek refuge or ask for blessings at the verses. Yes.
