The issue of raising the voice in dhikr after prayer?

The questioner : The issue of raising the voice in dhikr after prayer?

The Shaykh : What we see is... education. Raising the voice after prayer conflicts with the principles of the Shari'ah, which state that it is not permissible to disturb the worshippers. Raising the voice disturbs those who may be in the mosque who are masbuq (joining late), and it disturbs those who wish to remember Allah alone, not in a collective manner as they do in some mosques, such as in Syria and elsewhere. For example, you want to say: Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, while I want to say: Astaghfirullah, Astaghfirullah. So why do you disturb me and I disturb you? Or why do you impose on me to follow you in the takbir, while I do not impose on you to follow me in the istighfar? ... Astaghfirullah, Astaghfirullah, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar. There is no specific mention of the place in this particular reminder... In some of the hadiths that came, the hadith of istighfar is the first thing a person says; because if he... says the taslim, he seeks forgiveness three times. As for that... raising the voice in takbir... this is the hadith...; therefore, if the worshipper seeks forgiveness from Allah three times, then says: Astaghfirullah, Astaghfirullah three times, then says: O Allah... La ilaha illa Allah wahdahu la sharika lahu, and so on... then here there is no order between these adhkar, so the worshippers... recite these adhkar however they wish. If it is said that raising the voice in takbir is a sunnah, that is a mistake without doubt. It disturbs the other worshippers... It is not based on the hadith that prohibits
Your reader should not disturb your one who is praying لا يشوِّش قارئكم على مصلِّيكم
This has no basis. However, what is prohibited, as in "Muwatta Malik" and "Sunan Abu Dawud," is the hadith of Abu Sa'id al-Khudri that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not... lifting the curtain, he said:
O people, do not raise your voices over one another in recitation يا أيها الناس ، لا يجهر بعضكم على بعض بالقراءة
, in the narration... Al-Baghawi and others added with a strong chain:
so that you do not harm the believers فتؤذوا المؤمنين
, it is regarding the loudness of the takbir... Imam al-Shafi'i... that it was... the reasoning. So the expression justifies raising the voice necessarily, but to take the loudness as a sunnah, as is the case in the prayers where the recitation is loud, there is no evidence for that.
