Recitation Of Different Modes Of Qiraat In Salaah

Salaah

Question

Is it permissible to recite any of the other Qiraat (apart from Riwaayat of Hafs) in Salaah?

Answer

It is permissible to recite any Qiraat from the Qiraat-e-`Asharah in Salaah, without it affecting the validity of the Salaah in any way.

The Imaams who lead people in Salaah should, however, abstain from  reading any form of Qiraat which the congregation are unfamiliar with, as this may cause confusion and doubt to creep into their minds and even lead to such statements being uttered by them which could adversely affect the condition of their Imaan.

وَيَجُوزُ بِالرِّوَايَاتِ السَّبْعِ، لَكِنْ الْأَوْلَى أَنْ لَا يَقْرَأْ بِالْغَرِيبَةِ عِنْدَ الْعَوَامَ صِيَانَةٌ لِدِينِهِمْ
