What is the ruling on weeping out of fear of Allah during prayer?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Prayer. Fajr. Fajr.
The Shaykh : Weeping out of fear of Allah is permissible.
The questioner : The Shaykh, one jingle.
The Shaykh : As for forcing oneself to weep or raising one’s voice with it in an impermissible manner, there is something wrong with that in itself. However, if it comes as a natural reaction without any forcing, that is something one cannot guard against, because it comes upon a person involuntarily. And to conclude this session, I ask Allah the Exalted to grant us all success in what He loves and is pleased with. Yes.
