Question
I was in India on a preaching tour last Ramadan. In a mosque in Rokh, we saw an old Hafez sitting in a wheelchair teaching Tarabeeh. And all the Muktadis are standing behind him reciting Tarabeeh. We were the first to face such a situation. So we were very skeptical about what to do. And in the end, we, like the brothers in the area, follow him. Now I want to know from Muhtaram, is it permissible to lead the prayers in a wheelchair like this and to do Iqtida behind him? And has the Tarabeeh of those days been valid? 9838944435
Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
Since the person sitting in the chair performs the prayer, he bows and prostrates. Therefore, it is not permissible for him to lead those who are capable of Qiyam and Ruku-Sijdah. So in the case in question, your iqtida behind that majur person was not valid. However, since Tarabeeh does not have qaya, those prayers do not have to be repeated now. 5578278593
