Question
Is it permissible to use sound effects for the qiraat in salaah?
Answer
The Object of the microphone is so that the Muqtadis are able to hear their Imaam, the volume should be adjusted accordingly and not beyond that. There is no need to modify or amplify the sound just so that the recitation sounds more enjoyable as this is not the objective of the microphone, rather it is to convey the voice of the Imaam.
The microphone should be used according to necessity and not with the intention of entertainment, therefore the “echo” mode and other similar sound effects should not be utilized.
