Question:
Assalamualaikum, my dear sheikhs. May Allah bless all of us.
I am pretty new to the Naqshbandi Sufi Order and I’ve seen them doing salat in a very rapid way. How do they recite Fatihah and others? Doesn’t the Qur’an tell us to read the Qur’an in a tartiil way?
Thank you.
Answer:
Wa`alaykumussalam,
The prayer may be rapid or slow, however with concentration, observing the pauses in between each change of movement, and the recitation in it must be proper and correct, without which the prayer is not acceptable.
