About reading prayers out loud. Learning to correctly read the Du'a prayer "Qunut" in morning prayer

In one of the noble hadiths, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) says:

صلّوا كما رأيتموني أصلّي

“Pray as you have seen me pray.” (Bukhari)

This and similar hadiths are the basis on which jurists rely in making any decisions regarding prayer. Any Sharia decision regarding certain actions and methods of performing namaz is based on the noble hadiths of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).

And others - to themselves, also has a basis - the actions of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).

A scholar of the Shafi'i madhhab, Suleiman al-Bujairami (may Allah have mercy on him) in his "Hashiyat" writes that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) at the beginning of his prophetic mission read the Koran aloud in all prayers. When the polytheists began to mock and insult Allah and His Messenger, the verse was revealed:

وَلَا تَجْهَرْ بِصَلَاتِكَ وَلَا تُخَافِتْ بِهَا وَابْتَغِ بَيْنَ ذَٰلِكَ سَبِيلًا

“Do not perform your prayer loudly and do not perform it in a whisper, but choose something in between.” (Surah al-Isra).

After this, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) began to read the Koran silently during the afternoon and evening prayers, and out loud during the remaining prayers.

What do we mean by reading the prayer out loud and silently?

Reading namaz out loud is reading Surah al-Fatihah in the first two rakats of the prayer - be it four rakats, three rakats or two rakats - in such a way that the one standing next to you can hear your reading.

As for reading the prayer silently, it is reading al-Fatiha in such a way that only the one who reads it can hear it.

Which obligatory prayers are read aloud and which are not?

Mandatory prayers that are preferably read aloud include:

1. evening prayer (maghrib),
2. night prayer (isha),
3. morning prayer (subh),
4. Friday prayer (juma).

Mandatory prayers that it is advisable to read silently include:

1. lunch prayer (zuhr),
2. afternoon prayer (asr).

That is, prayers performed during the daytime are read silently, and at night they are read out loud. Night time is the period of time between sunset and sunrise.

Which desired prayers are read out loud and which ones are not?

Desirable prayers are also divided into two types: those that are read aloud, and those that are read silently.

Desirable prayers that should be read aloud include:

1. both Friday prayers (Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha),
2. prayer asking for rain,
3. prayer for a moon eclipse - it doesn’t matter whether the eclipse occurred after sunrise or at night,
4. Tarawih,
5. Witr, which occurs in the month of Ramadan.

And all other prayers, be it zukha prayers or desired prayers that are performed before or after the obligatory prayers, are read silently.

The exception is the desired prayers, which are not conditioned by anything, they are called sunnah-mutlaq. That is, these are prayers that can be performed at any time of the day, except during which it is undesirable to perform them. The intention for such a prayer is made as follows: “I intend to perform two rak’ahs of the desired prayer.” And when these prayers are performed at night, that is, after sunset until it rises, it is advisable to read them sometimes out loud, and sometimes silently.

As for reimbursable prayers, they can also be divided into obligatory and desirable.

When compensating for obligatory prayers, you need to pay attention to the time when they are reimbursed. Any obligatory prayer that is performed during the daytime is read silently, and any prayer that is performed in the evening is read out loud.

For example, if a person makes up for the night prayer during the day, then he reads it silently, and if he makes up for the lunchtime prayer at night, then he reads it out loud.

As for the desired prayers, they can be divided into two types:

1. those that it is advisable to read aloud, without taking into account the time of their reimbursement. These are both holiday prayers, tarawih, witr in the month of Ramadan - it is advisable to read them out loud - both performing them in a timely manner and reimbursing them, no matter what time of day they are reimbursed;
2. those that are advisable to read silently, regardless of what time they are reimbursed. These are the desirable ratibat prayers, which are performed before and after the obligatory prayers, as well as the Witr prayer, performed outside the second half of the month of Ramadan.

May Allah grant us understanding of religion and strict adherence to it, ameen!

Where should a woman start performing prayer? Before answering this question, it is necessary to understand what namaz is, how to read it, and find out the procedure for performing namaz for women.

Namaz is the most important pillar of the Islamic faith, one of the five concepts that define the very essence of religion. Every Muslim man and woman is obliged to perform namaz, because this is the very worship of the Almighty, a prayer to Him and a sign that the believer completely submits to the Lord and surrenders himself to His will.

Performing prayer cleanses a person from sins and helps illuminate his heart with the light of goodness and truth. In essence, namaz is a person’s direct communication with the Lord. Let us remember how the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) spoke about prayer:

“Namaz is the pillar of religion. Whoever abandons prayer destroys his religion.”

For a Muslim woman, prayer is a way to cleanse the soul from sinful thoughts, from the human desire for vices, from the evil that has accumulated in the soul. Namaz is necessary not only for men, but also for women. Once the Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu alayhi wassallam) addressed his companions: “Will dirt remain on your body if you bathe in the river that flows in front of your house?” They answered the Prophet: “O Messenger of Allah, there will be no dirt left.” The Prophet said: “These are the obligatory prayers that a believer performs, and through this Allah washes away his sins, just as this water washes away dirt.”

What is the key, even critical, importance of prayer for a Muslim? The fact is that according to prayer on the Day of Judgment, the Lord will determine a person’s value for Himself and will consider his earthly actions. And Allah does not discriminate between men and women.

It is known that many Muslim women are afraid of the very beginning of performing namaz, because they do not know how to do it correctly. In no case can this become an obstacle to a woman’s path to fulfilling her obligations to the Lord. By not performing prayer, a woman deprives her soul of peace and tranquility; she does not receive generous rewards from Allah. Her family will not be peaceful and prosperous, and she will not be able to raise her children according to Islamic standards.

How to perform namaz correctly for women?

First of all, you need to find out what salt is, how many obligatory prayers there are and how many rakats they include.

Solat is a prayer, an appeal to Allah, a namaz. There are fard prayers, sunnah prayers, nafil prayers. The most important step on the direct path of Allah is the reading of fard prayer, which is obligatory for every Muslim.

Rakat is the name given to the order in which certain actions are performed during prayer. The dawn al-Fajr includes 2 rak'ahs, the midday al-Fajr - 4 rak'ahs, the afternoon al-Fajr - 4 rak'ahs, and the evening al-Fajr - 3 rak'ahs. 4 rak'ahs are allocated for night prayer.

The rakat includes one rukah (as bows from the waist are called in Islam), as well as two sajdas (as bows to the ground are called). To start performing this prayer for beginner women, it is important to memorize the suras and duas used in performing the prayer as soon as possible, learn the rakats and the order of their performance. You need to know at least 3 Quranic surahs, about 5 duas and. In addition, the woman will have to learn how to perform wudhu and ghusl.

A beginning woman can be taught how to perform namaz by her husband or relatives. You can also use training videos, of which there are many on the Internet. With the help of the video, a Muslim woman will clearly see the actions during prayer, their sequence, learn the order of reading duas and surahs, and learn to hold her hands and body in the correct position. It is worth remembering the words of al-Luknawi: “Many actions of a woman during prayer differ from the actions of men...” (“Al-Siyaya”, volume 2, p. 205).

Namaz for beginners from two rak'ahs

The dawn prayer al-Fajr contains only two rak'ahs, so it cannot be called complex. In addition, this prayer is used when performing additional prayer.

The procedure for performing dawn prayer for women is common to all Muslims. The main difference between male and female Fajr prayer is the position of the limbs. To correctly perform this type of prayer, a woman needs to not only pronounce judgments and duas in Arabic, but also be sure to understand the meaning behind them. In this article we will give the procedure for performing namaz with the translation of surahs. Of course, if a woman could attract an Arabic language teacher to memorize the surahs, this would be an ideal option. But, in the absence of one, you can use training programs. The most important point is the correct pronunciation of all words in Arabic. To make it easier for a beginner woman, we have translated the suras and duas into Russian, although, of course, such a translation cannot fully reflect the pronunciation of the words.

First rak'ah of prayer

Before performing namaz, a woman must achieve complete ritual purity. For this purpose, ghusl and wudu are made - this is what Islam calls two types of ritual ablution.

The woman's body should be almost completely hidden. Only the hands, feet and face remain open.

We stand facing the Kaaba.

We inform Allah with our hearts about what kind of prayer we are going to perform. For example, a woman can read to herself: “For the sake of Allah, I intend to perform 2 rakats of fard of today’s morning prayer.”

Raise both arms so that the fingertips reach shoulder level. The palms should be turned towards the Kaaba. We say the initial takbir: “Allahu Akbar.” During Takbir, a woman must look at the place where her head will touch when bowing to the ground. We hold our hands at the chest, place our fingers at shoulder level. The feet should be parallel with the distance of approximately one hand minus the thumb

After pronouncing Takbir, we fold our hands on our chest. The right hand should rest on the left hand. Men take their left wrist when praying, but women do not need to do this.

Having reached the above-described position and still looking at the place of saj (prostration), we read the dua “Sana”:

“Subhanakya Allahumma wa bihamdikya wa Tabarakya-smukya wa ta’ala Jaddukya wa la ilaha gairuk.”

Meaningful translation: “Allah! You are above all shortcomings, all praise is to You, the presence of Your Name is endless in everything, Your Greatness is high, and besides You we worship no one.”

Let us remember Aisha, who told people the following hadith: “The Messenger began the prayer after the opening takbir with this doxology: “Subhanaka...”.

The next stage is reading “Auuzu bil-lyahi mina-shaytaani r-rajim” (I seek refuge with Allah from Satan, who is stoned).

We read “Bismillyahi-Rrahmani-Rrahim” (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious).

Without changing the position of the body, we read the most important surah Fatiha in prayer:

1. Bismillahi Rahmani Rahim.
2. Alhamdulillahi Robbil ‘aalamin.
3. Ar-Rahmani Rahim.
4. Maliki Yaumiddin.
5. Iyakya na'budu ya iyakya nasta'in.
6. Ikhdina ssyroatal-mustaqiyim,
7. syroatol-lyaziyna an’amta ‘alaihim, gairil-magdubi ‘alaihim wa lad-dolin.

Transcription of Surah Al-Fatiha in Russian letters.

Meaningful translation of the text:

• 1:1 In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful!
• 1:2 Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds,
• 1:3 To the Gracious, the Merciful,
• 1:4 Lord of the Day of Retribution!
• 1:5 You alone we worship and you alone we pray for help.
• 1:6 Lead us straight,
• 1:7 The way of those whom You have prospered, not those on whom wrath has fallen, nor those who are lost.

Maintaining the position of the body, we read out any sura known to us. Surah Al-Kawthar is perfect:

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim.

• 108:1 Inna A'taynakal-Kausar.
• 108:2 Fasalli Lirabbika Uanhar.
• 108:3 Inna Shani'aka Khual-Abtar.

Transcription for learning by heart

Translation of the meaning: “We have given you al-Kawsar (countless blessings, including the river of the same name in Paradise). Therefore perform prayer for the sake of your Lord and slaughter the sacrifice. Verily, your hater himself will be unknown.”

In principle, when praying for beginner women, it is enough to read Surah Fatiha and then proceed to perform the Hand.

The hand is done as follows: we bend in a bow, leaving the back parallel to the floor. We say “Allah Akbar”. For representatives of the fairer sex, it is not necessarily enough to just lean forward a little, because it is quite difficult to completely straighten your back and not every woman is capable of this. When performing the Hand, the hands should rest on the kneecaps, but there is no need to clasp them. Leaning in this way, we say:

“Subhaana Rabiyal Azyym” - (Glory to my Great Lord).

This phrase is pronounced 3 to 7 times. Prerequisite: the number of repetitions must be odd.

Exit from the “bow” position is also accompanied by the words:

"Sami'Allahu liman hamidah"

Translation: “Allah hears those who praise him.”

“Rabbana wa lakal hamd.”

Translation: “O our Lord, to You alone is all praise!”

Having straightened up, we perform Sajd again, while saying “Allahu Akbar.” Different parts of the body are lowered to the floor gradually: first we press our knees to the floor, then our hands, and finally our nose and forehead. It is important that the head is positioned during Sajda directly between the hands, spread in such a way that the fingers pressed to each other point towards the Kaaba. The elbows should be located close to the stomach. We press our calves tightly to our thighs; we cannot close our eyes. Having reached this position, the Muslim woman says:

"Subhana Rabbiyal A'lyaa." (Glory to my Lord supreme).

We return to a sitting position, while saying “Allahu Akbar.” We take a new sitting position: we bend our knees and place our hands on them. We hold this position until “Subhanallah” is said. Again we say “Allahu Akbar” and take the position of Sajd. In Sajda we say three, five or seven times: “Subhana Rabbiyal A’lyaa.” An important point: the number of repetitions should be the same in both Sajd and Ruka.

The first rakat of prayer ends with rising to a standing position. Of course, at the same time we say “Allahu Akbar”: praising the Almighty is obligatory in almost every action during prayer. We keep our hands folded on our chest.

Second rak'ah of prayer

We repeat all the steps described above, but from the moment we read Surah Fatiha. After reading the sura, we use another text, for example, “Ikhlas”:

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim

• 112:1 Kul huAllaahu Ahad
• 112:2 Allahus-Samad
• 112:3 Lam yalid wa lam yulyad
• 112:4 Wa lam yakullahu kufuuan Ahad

Transcription of Surah Al-Ikhlas

We use the same scheme of actions as during the first rakat up to the second Saj. Having bowed, we do not rise, as described above, but sit down. The woman sits to the left, with her legs drawn up to the outer thighs, pointing to her right. It is important that the woman performing namaz sits on the floor and not on her feet. Place your hands on your knees, pressing your fingers tightly.

“At-takhiyayatu lLlyayahi was-Salauaatu uat-Tayibat As-Salayamu aleyka Ayuhan-nabiyu wa rahmatu Llaahi wa barakayatukh. Assalamu Aleyna wa ala ibaadi Llaahi-ssalihin Ashhadu Allaya ilaha ilaAllahu Wa ashhadu Anna Muhammadan Abduhu wa Rasuuluh"

Translation of the meaning: “Greetings, prayers and all good deeds belong only to Allah Almighty. Peace be upon you, O Prophet, the mercy of Allah and His blessings. Peace be upon us, as well as to all the righteous servants of Allah, I testify that there is no god worthy of worship except Allah. And I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger.”

The next part of the prayer is the reading of the dua “Salavat”, glorifying the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wass salam):

“Allaahumma sally 'alaya sayidinaa mukhammadin wa 'alaya eeli sayidinaa mukhammad, Kyama sallayte 'alaya sayidinaa ibraahima wa 'alaya eeli sayidinaa ibraahim, Wa baarik 'alaya sayidinaa mukhammadin wa 'alaya eeli sayidinaa mukhammad, yamaa baarakte 'alaya sayidinaa ibraakhima ua 'alaya eeli Sayidinaa ibrahhiima fil-'aalamiin, innekya hamiidun majiid.”

Translation of the meaning: “O Allah! Bless Muhammad and his family, as You blessed Ibrahim and his family. And send down blessings on Muhammad and his family, just as You sent down blessings on Abraham and his family in all the worlds. Verily, You are the Praised One, the Glorified One.”

Immediately after the dua for the glory of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), we read an appeal to Allah:

“Allahumma inni zolyamtu nafsi zulman kasira wa la yagfiruz zunuuba illya Ant. Fagfirli magfiratam min ‘indik warhamni innaka Antal Gafuurur Rahiim.”

Translation of the meaning: “O Allah, truly I have been extremely unfair to myself, and only You forgive sins. So forgive me on Your part and have mercy on me! Verily, You are the Most Forgiving, the Most Merciful.”

Dua for the glory of Allah is replaced by Salutation. It must be read with your head turned to the right and looking at your right shoulder. We pronounce:

“Assalaiyamu ’alaikum wa rahmatu-llaah” (peace and blessings of Allah be upon you).

We turn our head to the left, look at our left shoulder and repeat the same words.

This ends two rak'ah prayers.

If desired, the worshiper can expand the prayer by reading “Astagfirullah” three times at the end of the prayer session, then “Ayatul-kursi”. In addition, you can pronounce the following taxibs 33 times:

• Subhanallah;
• Alhamdulillah;
• Allahu Akbar.

After this you need to read

“La ilaha illalah wahdahu la sharikalyah, lahalul mulku wa lahalul hamdu wa hua ala kulli shayin kadir.”

The next part of the recommended (not obligatory) actions of prayer is reading the dua from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). You can read any other dua that does not contradict Sharia. When reading, it is recommended (not necessary) to hold your open palms together in front of your face, tilting them slightly upward.

Two rak'ahs of sunnah and nafl prayers

Sunnah and nafl prayers are usually performed during the morning prayer immediately after its fard rakats. In addition, after the fard rakats of Zuhr prayer, 2 rakats of sunnah and nafl are used.

Also, 2 rak'ahs of sunnah and nafl are used after fard (Maghrib), fard (Esha) and immediately before Witr prayer.

The sunnah and nafl prayers are almost similar to the two-rakt fard prayer. The key difference is the intention, since immediately before performing the prayer, a Muslim woman needs to read the intention for this particular prayer. If a woman performs sunnah prayer, then she should also read the intention about it.

Correct reading of evening prayer by a woman

How can a woman correctly read the fard prayer, which consists of 3 rak'ahs? Let's figure it out. A similar prayer can only be found in evening prayer.

The prayer begins with two rak'ahs, similar to those used in the two-rak'ah prayer. In simplified form, the order is as follows:

1. Surah Fatiha.
2. A short surah.
3. Saja.
4. Second sajja.
5. Surah Fatiha (re-reading).
6. One of the surahs familiar to the woman.
7. Hand.
8. Saja.
9. Second sajja.

After the second saji of the second rakah, the woman needs to sit down and recite the dua Tashahud. After reading the dua, a Muslim woman can move on to the third rakat.

The third rakat includes Surah Fatiha, Ruku, Sajja and the second Sajja. Having completed the second sajja, the woman sits down to read the dua. She will have to recite the following suras:

• Tashahud.
• Salavat.
• Allahumma inni zolyamtu.

Having finished with this part of the prayer, the Muslim woman says a greeting similar to the greeting from the two-rak prayer session. The prayer is considered completed.

How to perform Witr prayer

Witr prayer includes three rak'ahs, and its performance is significantly different from those described above. When performing, specific rules are used that are not used in other prayers.

A woman needs to stand facing the Kaaba, pronounce the Intention, then the classic Takbir “Allahu Akbar”. The next step is to pronounce the dua “Sana”. When the dua is pronounced, the first rakat of Witra begins.

The first rakah includes: Surah Fatiha, short surah, rukah, sajdah and second sajdah. We stand to perform the second rakah, which includes “Fatihah”, a short surah, ruka, sajah, second sajah. After the second sajja, we sit down and read the dua Tashahud. It is important to ensure correct landing. We rise for the third rak'ah.

In the third rak'ah of Vitra prayer, the Fatiha surah and one of the short surahs known to a woman are read. An excellent option would be Surah Falak:

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim.

• 113:1 Kul A'uzu Birabil-Falyak.
• 113:2 Min Sharry Ma Khalyak.
• 113:3 Ua Min Sharri Gasikyin Iza Uakab.
• 113:4 Ua Min Sharrin-Naffasati Fil-`Ukad.
• 113:5 Ua Min Sharri Hasidin Iza Hasad.

Meaningful translation: “Say: “I seek refuge with the Lord of the dawn from the evil of what He has created, from the evil of darkness when it comes, from the evil of witches who spit on knots, from the evil of the envious person when he envyes.”

Note! When performing Witr prayer for beginners, it is permissible to read the same surahs in different rakats.

At the next stage, you should say “Allahu Akbar”, raise your hands as when performing the initial takbir and return them to their original position. We say dua Qunut:

“Allahumma inna nastainuka wa nastagfiruka wa nastahdika wa nu’minu bika wa natubu ilyayka wa netauakkulyu aleyke wa nusni aleyku-l-haira kullehu neshkuruka wa laa nakfuruka wa nahlau wa netruku mey yafjuruk. Allahumma iyyaka na’budu wa laka nusalli wa nasjudu wa ilyayka nes’a wa nahfidu narju rahmatika wa nakhsha azabaka inna azabaka bi-l-kuffari mulhik.”

Translation of the meaning: “O Allah! We ask you to lead us along the true path, we ask You for forgiveness and we repent. We believe in You and rely on You. We praise You in the best possible way. We thank You and are not unfaithful. We reject and renounce those who do not obey You. O Allah! We worship you alone, pray and make prostrations to the ground. We strive and direct ourselves towards You. We hope for Your Mercy and fear Your punishment. Verily, Thy punishment befalls the disbelievers!”

Dua “Qunut” is a very difficult surah, which will require a lot of time and effort for a woman to memorize. If a Muslim woman has not yet managed to cope with this surah, she can use a simpler one:

“Rabbana atina fi-d-Dunya hasanatan wa fi-l-Akhirati hasanatan wa kyna azaban-Nar.”

Meaningful translation: Our Lord! Give us good things in this and the next life, protect us from the fire of Hell.

If a woman has not yet memorized this dua, she can say “Allahumma-gfirli” three times, which means: “Allah, forgive me!” It is also acceptable to say three times: “Ya, Rabbi!” (O my Creator!).

Having pronounced the dua, we say “Allahu Akbar!”, make a hand, soot, another soot and sit down to recite the following texts:

• Tashahud.
• Salavat.
• Allahumma inni zolyamtu nafsi.

Witr ends with a greeting to Allah.

4 rak'ah prayer for women

Having gained some experience in performing prayer, a woman can proceed to 4 rakats.

The four cycles of prayer include midday, night and afternoon.

Performance:

• We stand so that our face is turned towards the Kaaba.
• We express our intention.
• We articulate Takbir “Allahu Akbar!”
• We say the dua “Sana”.
• We stand to perform the first rak'ah.
• The first two rak'ahs are read as in the 2-rak'ah Fadr prayer, with the exception that in the second rak'ah it is enough to read "Tashahud" and after Surah "Fatiha" nothing else needs to be read.
• After completing two rak'ahs, we recite the dua Tashahud. Then - “Salavat”, Allahumma inni zolyamtu nafsi. We do the greeting.

Women need to remember the rules of performing namaz. The body must be covered; prayers cannot be performed during menstruation and after childbirth. The prayers that the Muslim woman missed at this moment do not need to be restored.

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) read prayers performed at night out loud, and during the day, silently. Those. prayers: He read Fajr, Maghrib and Isha out loud, and Dhuhr and Asr silently. There is no difference in this between obligatory and voluntary prayers, i.e. any prayer at night is read aloud, and during the day, silently .
Sheikh Ibn Baz said:“As for the daily prayers, like the spirit prayer, or sunan rauatib, zuhr and asr prayers, then the Sunnah is to read these prayers silently.”. See "Fataawa Ibn Baz" 11/207.
Exception from prayers performed during the daytime but read audibly: Friday prayer, holiday prayers of Fitr and Adha, prayer for rain (istiqa) and prayer for an eclipse of the sun or moon. See "Asl syfatu-ssala".
“Most scholars believe that reading aloud those prayers that are read aloud and reciting silently those prayers that are recited silently are from the Sunnah prayers (i.e., not wajib)! However, the Hanafis are inclined to believe that wajib is reading those prayers aloud those that are read aloud and wajib read silently those that are read silently." See “al-Mausu’atul-fiqhiyya” 16/188.
The scholars of the Standing Committee said: “It has been established that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) read aloud two rak’ats in the morning (fajr) prayer, the first two rak’ats in the evening (magrib) prayer and night (‘isha). And reading aloud in these prayers is Sunnah. And this is legalized for his ummah, who must follow the example of the prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), as Allah Almighty said: “The Messenger of Allah was a wonderful example for you, for those who hope in Allah and the Last Day and remember Allah greatly.” (al-Ahzab 33:21). It is also established from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) himself that he said: “Perform prayer as you saw me doing it!” However, if a person reads to himself in those places where he reads aloud, then he is the one who left the Sunnah, but his prayer is not broken for this reason!” See “Fataawa al-Lajna” 6/392.
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen said:“Reading aloud in those parts of the prayer where it is recited is not obligatory (wajib), but it is desirable. And if a person read silently to himself what he should have read out loud, then his prayer is not broken! After all, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “There is no prayer for anyone who has not read the Fatiha,” and he did not connect this reading with it being done out loud or silently. And if a person reads what it is wajib for him to read out loud or silently, then he has fulfilled his duty. However, it is better, and this is the Sunnah, to read aloud the first two rak'ahs in the Magharib and 'Isha prayers, as well as the morning prayer, the Jumu'a prayer, 'Eid, the istiqa prayer (for sending rain), tarawih and similar prayers in which read aloud. And if a person, being an imam, consciously reads a prayer to himself, then his prayer is valid, but not complete. As for the one who prays alone, he can choose how to read - out loud or silently. Let him pay attention to which reading is best for him and gives him humility.”
See “Nura ‘ala ad-darb” No. 218, “as-Sala”.
Imam al-Kasani says:“As for voluntary prayers, if they are daytime prayers, then they are read secretly, and if they are night prayers, then he chooses how to read them: out loud or silently. But out loud it is better, since voluntary prayers are similar to obligatory prayers and have the same ruling.”
See "Badai" al-sanai "" 1/161.

Also in the famous book “Mausu atul-fiqkhiya” 25/281 in the section “What is desirable and condemnable in Sunan ar-rawatib?” it is said: “It is advisable to read quietly if the nafilah is performed in the daytime, and he chooses for himself between reading aloud and to himself if he performs prayer alone at night. But it’s better to read out loud, provided that it doesn’t distract others.”

When Shaykh Ibn Baz was asked about reciting the prayer of the Spirit aloud, he said: “The prayer of the Spirit is recited silently, and also zuhr and asr, all these prayers silently. But if a woman or a man reads the prayer of the Spirit aloud, there is no problem in this, since the recitation out loud and silently - this is the Sunnah and not haram, and not wajib. If he reads the daytime prayer aloud and the nighttime prayer silently, then the prayer is valid, but this is a contradiction of the Sunnah by reading the Spirit or Dhuhr and Asr silently, and hearing the nighttime prayer. prayers, like the first two cancers of the Maghrib and Isha, as well as the two cancers of the morning prayer. Also, the Friday prayer, the Eid prayer, and the prayer for asking for rain are read out loud, even if they are performed during the daytime. prayers, then they are read quietly during the daytime, like Zuhr and Asr, and aloud at night, like the first two cancers “ata in Maghrib and Isha and Fajr prayer...”.
Sl. "Fataua Nurun "ala ad-darb."

Question:If the imam, in a prayer that must be read by himself, read Fatiha out loud, for example in Dhuhra or Asr, and he was reminded of this by those standing behind him, should he make sujud-saha after that? And to what category does this belong, an addition to the prayer or an omission from it?
Answer: Sujud-sahu in the described case is not necessary, since the most he did was leave the sunnah, and it consists in reading this prayer silently. Whereas it is also from the sunnah that the imam sometimes read aloud so that he can be heard, which clearly came in the hadith from Abu Qatada, may Allah be pleased with him, given in the collections of al-Bukhari and Muslim, that the prophet, peace be upon him blessings of Allah, sometimes read aloud a verse in prayer, which is read silently. For this reason, he is not obliged to perform sujud-saha in this case, but if he does, then there is no problem. And if he makes it, then the place of sujudah-sahu in this case will be after salam, since reading aloud is an addition, but if he makes it before salam, then that’s also not a problem.
