The ruling on the ma'mum reciting al-Fatihah in the loud prayers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
Peace be upon you.
The presenter:
How are you, Shaykh?
The Shaykh:
You can see hesitation in it.
The presenter:
All right, turn off the television, O 'Abd Allah, my brother. Come on, ask your question.
The questioner:
My question is, Honorable Shaykh, you mentioned that the ma'mum (one praying behind the imam) hears the imam in the loud prayers, meaning he listens to the Qur'an. Does this mean that he does not recite al-Fatihah after listening to the recitation of al-Fatihah?
The Shaykh:
He recites al-Fatihah during the imam's pauses, and if he is unable to do so, then the imam's recitation suffices.
The presenter:
Thank you, thank you. The imam's recitation suffices, it suffices. Yes.
Peace be upon you.
