What is the ruling on the follower saying "Yes" when the imam recites the words of Allah the Exalted: "Is not Allah the most just of judges"?

The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah reward you. We have heard some of the followers...

The Shaykh : Yes?

The questioner : We have heard some of the followers, when the imam recites the words of Allah the Exalted: , say: "Yes." What is the ruling on this?

The Shaykh : This is valid. If Allah the Exalted says: , then say: "Yes." And likewise with this kind of construction; that is, when we encounter such a statement, we say: "Yes." You say: "Yes." You say: "Yes." You say: "Yes," yes, indeed. However, if the follower 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, so if he says: , he says: "Yes," yes.
