Arabic text

826 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِخَبَّابٍ: " بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ كُنْتُمْ تَعْرِفُونَ قِرَاءَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ؟ قَالَ: بِاضْطِرَابِ لِحْيَتِهِ "

Commentary

a. In a prayer of inaudible recitation of the Qur'an, the recitation should be such that the lips' movement follows the articulation of words recited. Simply reciting the words at the pre-speech level will not suffice. b. The worshipper's gaze, if it is raised towards the Imām, will not invalidate his prayer.
