What is the ruling on the followers racing the imam in saying “Ameen”?

The questioner : There was a question today. The question was that the followers say “Ameen” immediately after the imam finishes saying: , so what is the ruling on that?

The Shaykh : We answered with what came from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in his saying: We spoke at length, so to summarize, this hadith means: It is not permissible for the followers to race the imam by saying “Ameen” before the imam himself begins to say “Ameen.” This is a common error in all mosques; unfortunately, we do not exclude one country from another. This is due to people’s negligence regarding this hadith of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) first, and the scarcity of those who point out the obligation of following the imam in general second. You know, if Allah wills, the generality of his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): This is the principle regarding the obligation of the followers to follow the imams, and that it is not permissible for them to precede them. In another narration: : So among the ways of opposing the imam in the matter of saying “Ameen” is for the followers to hasten the imam by saying “Ameen” before the imam himself says “Ameen.” This hadith is explicit and authentic because it is in al-Bukhari and Muslim, so I hope you pay attention to it: This is what the Muslim should observe so that he may perhaps attain the forgiveness of Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He). This is the summary of this issue, but you had raised another issue!
