The follower’s recitation with the imam in the loud prayers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for the follower to recite with the imam while the imam is reciting in the loud prayers?
Answer:
Answer: This is not permissible, due to the saying of Allah the Exalted: {And when the Qur'an is recited, then listen to it and pay attention that you may receive mercy}. However, the scholars differed specifically regarding al-Fatihah: does the follower recite it while the imam is reciting? Some hold that he should, because it is a pillar of the prayer. Some say: The verse is general, so he does not recite al-Fatihah or anything else while the imam is reciting; rather, he only recites during the imam’s pauses.
