The Imam's Saying in Prayer: "Recite it for me"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
One of the imams was confused about the recitation while he was leading the congregation in prayer, so he said while in prayer, "Recite it for me," intending to alert them so they would recite it for him. Does his prayer become invalid with this phrase?
The Shaykh:
No, this is not a phrase from the Qur'an.
The questioner:
His prayer does not become invalid.
The Shaykh:
They mention that al-Hajjaj, when he was confused and they did not recite for him, said, "Recite it for me." When they did not recite for him, he said, "Why do you not speak?" As long as the phrase is from the Qur'an, there is no harm. Yes.
