Reading from the Mushaf in Voluntary Prayers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Some of the worshippers in some mosques read from the Mushaf during voluntary prayers, and when they bow, they move forward and backward. What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
How do they read from the Mushaf? This is not acceptable for an imam, especially an imam for the Friday prayer. One should appoint an imam who has memorized from the Qur'an what is sufficient for the Friday prayer and others, and not appoint someone like this.
