The second question is from our sister Munya al-Hushan. She asks: Is it permissible to pray behind the imam via television or radio?
Answer:
No, it is not permissible to pray behind the imam or with the imam via radio or television; because the imam may be in the East or in the West or in a direction other than the qiblah of the one praying, so this is not permissible. Yes.
