Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Some elementary school teachers give some students a paper and say to them, "Here? Some elementary school teachers give some students a paper and tell them, 'Give this to your mosque imam to have him sign it, certifying that you are maintaining the Fajr prayer in congregation daily,' and then they bring it back to the teacher. This is to encourage them to maintain the prayer. Is their action prescribed?
Answer:
It is prescribed. This is an imposition and also embarrassing. Encouraging them to pray, specifically the congregational prayer, is part of his duty in the lesson. But burdening them with this task is embarrassing and is not appropriate.
