Is it prescribed to seek refuge with Allah at the verse of punishment in the obligatory prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: If the imam recites a surah and mentions Paradise or Hellfire in a verse, and the one praying behind him seeks refuge from Hellfire and asks Allah for Paradise in the obligatory prayer, is that permissible if he raises his voice slightly?

Answer:
This is established from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in the night prayer, in the voluntary prayer. Some scholars say it is permissible in the obligatory prayer, because what is permissible in the voluntary is permissible in the obligatory. The majority hold that this is specific to the voluntary prayer, that it is specific to the voluntary prayer, because it is not reported that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did it in the obligatory prayer. Yes.
