The Ruling on Collective Talbiyah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And may Allah bless you. A brother from Syria, Abu Basim, asks: Honorable Shaykh, regarding collective talbiyah, if a person does not memorize the supplications, especially during Hajj, where one of the brothers recites the talbiyah and we recite it behind him, and the others follow him in this rite.
Answer:
This practice is not prescribed. Collective talbiyah and collective supplication are not prescribed. Talbiyah is easy; everyone knows it, and you recite it for yourself. Each person recites it for himself. Likewise, supplication is easy; everyone can say, “O Allah, forgive me, O Allah, have mercy on me, O Allah, accept my repentance, O Allah, guide me, O Allah, provide for me, forgive me and my parents and the believers.” This is something easy. There is no need for collective supplication or collective talbiyah. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
