If the khatib makes a supplication on Friday, should the congregation say "Ameen" to it?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, "Ameen" after the supplication?
The Shaykh : What kind of supplication?
The questioner : The khatib's supplication when he supplicates to Allah.
The Shaykh : "Does the shadow stand straight when the stick is crooked?" The supplication by the khatib is a religious innovation, and what is built upon a religious innovation is a religious innovation!
The questioner : If he says: "I seek forgiveness from Allah"?
The Shaykh : It is not from the Sunnah.
Another questioner : If he raises his hand, Shaykh?
The Shaykh : If we can do so in a known manner, we place his hand down.
The questioner : ... "May Allah disfigure those two hands."
The Shaykh : Yes, if we were in that era, we would say it, but our time today does not support us in doing so.
