Fatwa #51328 March 2002South Africa

What is the benefits of the dua after fard salaah made by the imaam?

Question

I notice many people carry on reading tasbeeh on their fingers and not lift their hands while the Imaam is making the dua after the fard salaah.They only lift their hands after they have finished. Is this allowed or does it reduce the blessings ?

Answer

While the Imaam is busy making Du'aa the people behind him should also join
him as there is more Barakah in doing so together.

However, since this is only preferable, they are not compelled to do so.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
