Congregational Dua after the Fardh Salaah

· 1 Dhuʻl-Hijjah 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Salaams. Please advise what the ruling is regarding loud Dua by the imam after ever Farz Salaah. Is it permissible and should we say Ameen, is the Dua for the full congregation or the imam or for oneself… If it is not a Sunnah or not permissible, what should we as the musallees do… should we walk out or sit and not raise our hands or make our own Dua silently… Please advise as it is regarded compulsory in many Masaajid locally. Jazakallah

Answer

Du’a after the Fardh Salaah is established from authentic Ahadith. However, the correct Sunnah method is that every person should make Du’a individually.

Raising the hands when making Du’a after the Fardh Salaah is established from the Ahadith.

Making a congregational Du’a after the Fardh Salaah is permissible on condition that it is not considered necessary.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
