The ruling on raising the voice in dhikr after the prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
How should one respond to those who say it is permissible to raise the voice in dhikr after the prayer, who argue with the statement of Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him and his father): "Raising the voice in dhikr was the practice during the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)"? Please guide us, O Shaykh.
Answer:
Yes, this is the Sunnah: raising the voice in dhikr. As for the one who says it is a religious innovation... he is mistaken. The Sunnah is to raise the voice in dhikr, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions did. Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) said: "Raising the voice in dhikr when the people finished the obligatory prayer was the practice during the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." Ibn Abbas said: "I knew when they had finished by that, when I heard them."
So the Sunnah for the imam and the followers, when they finish the prayer with the taslim, is to raise the voice in a moderate manner, without excess, so that the ignorant one learns and the forgetful one remembers. As for what some people do, glorifying Allah only to themselves, no, this is contrary to the Sunnah. The Sunnah is to raise the voice in dhikr so that the people follow one another and perform the Sunnah. Yes.
