The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Does a person raise his voice with his wish and what he seeks from drinking the water of Zamzam before drinking it, or does he not raise his voice and suffice with his intention?
The Shaykh:
No, he makes the supplication and vocalizes it. Raising the voice is not obligatory, but to the extent that he hears himself. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh:
It is not called a supplication unless he vocalizes it, just as recitation is not called recitation unless he vocalizes it and hears himself. Yes.
