Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner, Abdullah Al-Alf Al-Alf from Riyadh, says: What is your opinion, Honorable Shaykh (may Allah preserve you), on the echo that is placed in some mosques to improve the recitation?
Answer:
This is an affectation, and it is raising the voice in a way that harms or burdens the ma'mum (those praying behind the imam). Therefore, this echo should be prevented; it should be removed because of the exaggeration and affectation involved, and because of the harm it causes to the listeners. Yes.
