Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:

Answer:
If you recite it aloud, it is a recommended practice (sunnah); if you do not recite it aloud, it is not obligatory. If you recite it aloud considering it to be the second rak'ah, this is a recommended practice (sunnah). And if you are equal [in status], there is no harm, because reciting aloud and reciting quietly are recommended practices (sunnah) in the prayer.
