How to reconcile the statement of Allah the Exalted: "And when the Qur'an is recited, listen to it and pay attention" [the verse], with the statement of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In the name of Allah, praise is to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah. I have previously spoken about this matter which I am raising now: how do we reconcile the statement of Allah Mighty and Majestic—I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan—[Al-A'raf 7:204] with the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) Jami` at-Tirmidhi 247Sahih (Darussalam), or as he (peace and blessings be upon him) said, regarding the situation where the imam is not silent, and where... is the place of this recitation? And if this recitation is not performed, what is the ruling on my prayer?
