Reminding the Imam When He Prays Quietly in a Prayer of Recitation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh. An imam made a mistake in his prayer and did not recite aloud in it. Is it obligatory for the followers to remind him, and how is that done?
Answer:
It is recommended for them to remind him. One of the followers should raise his voice in recitation so that the imam becomes aware, and he should alert him by reciting a verse aloud so that the imam notices. Reciting aloud and reciting quietly are both recommended practices. That is, in the daytime prayers, the recommended practice is to recite quietly, but if one recites aloud, it is permissible. Likewise, in the night prayers, the better practice is to recite aloud, but if one recites quietly, it is permissible. However, if the imam does not recite aloud, one of the followers should alert him in the way he sees as most effective and most likely to make the imam aware. Yes.
