The Sutrah for the One Praying in the Haram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it true that there is no sutrah for the one praying in the Haram?

The Shaykh:
The imam’s sutrah is sufficient. The imam’s sutrah is sufficient for everyone behind him in the Haram and elsewhere. As for when it is not a congregational prayer, you are not preventing people; people are forced to enter and walk because of the large crowds. Do not stop them; let them walk, and this does no harm.

The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
When you finish your prayer, people… Yes.
