Question
What are the roles of an Imaam? I am sure that it is more than just leading the Salaat?
Answer
It depends what the terms of the work contract of the paid imaams are? There are different types of Imaams, hence their duties differ. If you are referring to a Musjid Imaam, then his primary duties are leading the Salaat and Amr Bil Ma'roof-Nahy Anil Munkar. If his work contract specifies other halaal duties, then these will also be Waajib obligations provided all such acts are in conformity with
the Shariah.
