[The ruling on the ma'mum saying "Yes" when the imam recites: "Is not Allah the most just of judges?"]

We have heard some of the ma'mum, when the imam recites the words of Allah the Exalted:
Is not Allah the most just of judges?أَلَيْسَ اللَّهُ بِأَحْكَمِ الْحَاكِمِينَ
[Al-Tin: 8], say: "Yes." What is the validity of this?
This is correct,If Allah the Exalted says:
Is not Allah the most just of judges?أَلَيْسَ اللَّهُ بِأَحْكَمِ الْحَاكِمِينَ
[Al-Tin: 8] So say: "Yes,"And likewise in this order, meaning: When we encounter such a statement, we say: "Yes."
Is not Allah sufficient for His Servantأَلَيْسَ اللَّهُ بِكَافٍ عَبْدَهُ
[Az-Zumar: 36] You say: "Yes."
Is not Allah Exalted in Might and Owner of Retribution?أَلَيْسَ اللَّهُ بِعَزِيزٍ ذِي انْتِقَامٍ
[Az-Zumar: 37] You say: "Yes."
Is He not able to give life to the dead?أَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ بِقَادِرٍ عَلَى أَنْ يُحْيِيَ الْمَوْتَى
[Al-Qiyamah: 40] You say: "Yes."
However, if the ma'mum is distracted from listening to his imam by this statement, he should not do it. But if it comes at the end of the verse where the imam paused, it does not distract him.

When he says:
Is not Allah the most just of judges?أَلَيْسَ اللَّهُ بِأَحْكَمِ الْحَاكِمِينَ
[At-Tin 95:8]
He says: "Yes."
