The Shaykh : Yes
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : The obligatory prayer is like the voluntary prayer unless there is evidence to the contrary.
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : Yes, we can say that the obligatory prayer is like the voluntary prayer, and we can also say that there is evidence here that the obligatory prayer is not like the voluntary prayer. This is because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to lead his Companions in the obligatory prayer, and it is not reported that he used to seek refuge in Allah, despite the strong motivation to report it if he had done so. In fact, when they saw his beard move between the takbir and the recitation, they asked him, "What do you say?" Yes. Three sound.
