Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Regarding the supplication, is it from the Sunnah to say "Ameen" in the Witr prayer, or is it not to remain silent?
The Shaykh : Yes, he says "Ameen"!
The questioner : Yes, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : He says "Ameen"!
The questioner : He says "Ameen," and when verses come, or "O Allah, send blessings and peace upon our master Muhammad," or the glorification of Allah (Mighty and Majestic)?
The Shaykh : He glorifies, seeks forgiveness, and makes supplication.
The questioner : The glorification of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), what does he say?
The Shaykh : Whatever is easy for him!
The questioner : From what?
The Shaykh : Whatever is easy for him.
The questioner : Like our mosque, for example?
The Shaykh : I have no answer other than what was recorded. How would I know about your mosque or this or that? I know what the principle is, and after that, every mosque has its own ruling. The principle is to maintain the connection.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you.
