Lengthening the Recitation in the Fajr Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He is not a mujtahid; when it comes to lengthening the Fajr prayer, it is approximately one authentic verse, and they describe that as being more severe than it.
Answer:
No, it is not being strict if you recite with a moderate recitation; that is not strictness. But some of the brothers recite with tartil, stretching the recitation and elongating it to the point where it becomes difficult for the ma'mumin (those praying behind the imam). It is better for a person to take the middle path and be moderate in his recitation. If he is moderate in it, I do not think his recitation will be long. Yes.
