Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: In our country, people gather before the Friday prayer, and one of them recites the Qur'an, and they listen to him until the time for the sermon arrives. Is this among the things prohibited in the mosques?
Answer:
As we mentioned, if they are in their rows, and one person is reciting the Qur'an while they listen, or delivering a lesson while they listen, there is no harm in this. What is prohibited is forming circles, which is what the prohibition was mentioned regarding.
