Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In the hadith of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), when he recited al-Fatihah audibly in the funeral prayer, and the Companions also heard his supplication, is it said that he did so with the intention of teaching?
Answer:
He said it; Ibn 'Abbas said it: "So that you may know that it is a sunnah (recommended practice)." That is, reciting al-Fatihah is the sunnah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). If the intention behind reciting audibly is to teach the people, then that is a good thing.
