The ruling on leading the prayer in a mosque where people are forced to recite bid'ah (religious innovation) dhikr
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: In our country, we are forced by the state to recite bid'ah (religious innovation) dhikr after every prayer. Is it permissible for me to lead people in prayer in such mosques, knowing that I remember Allah in my heart and do not join them in their bid'ah (religious innovation)?
Answer:
There is no obedience to a created being in disobedience to the Creator. So if leading the prayer is only achieved by committing bid'ah (religious innovation), do not enter into it.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
