Question
A Mufti in a settlement says that loud dua after Fardh and Taraaweeh is permissible. The loud dua serves to educate the musallis to enable them to also make dua. He says it is for ta-allum (or ta‟leem)? Most of the people in the village settlement do not know the duas. Is this reasoning valid?
Answer
The Mufti Sahib has erred in his understanding. Loud dua after Fardh and Taraaweeh Salaat is bid‟ah. The „ta-alluman (ta‟leem)‟ argument is deceptive. Ask the mufti sahib to also recite Tashahhud, the Durood, the Dua, the Ruku and Sajdah Tasbeehaat, Dua Qunoot in Witr and Thana aloud and justify it with his baseless „ta-alluman‟ stunt. Most of the people in the settlement are ignorant of these requisites of Salaat. Despite this, the mufti does not advocate making these Salaat requisites aloud. His argument is baseless and silly.
