Im comfortable praying namaz on my own and how it should be read etc etc.
However i need help for when i read behind the imaam.
I.e When reading Isha namaz we normally read 4 farz behind the imaam. So firstly one would do the niyaat and then say allahu akbar.
What i would like to know is , When the molwee(imaam) starts to recite do we just listen all the way through and not read anything apart from when we are in ruku, sajda and tashadu.
Or do we read full namaz in our hearts behind the imaam too ???
In first two rakaat's you listen to imam for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha , for zuhr and asr you stand quitely and concentrate on your nammaz , in the other rakaat you recite sura a fatiha.
I have another question about namaz... is it wrong to recite surat-e-ikhlas in other rakats beside the first rakat? I was at the mosuqe and molvi sahab was late so the namaz was lead by some guy who read surat-e-ikhlas in all the rakats. When were done with the namaz, quite a few aunties said it is wrong to recite surat-e-ikhlas after 1st rakat. I always thought that after surat-e-fatiha you can recite any surat...
As far as i know your right with the above statement.
Anyway back to the topic I also read some place the prophet (saw) said “if you do not recite surah al fatihah in all your rakats then your namaz is not valid” it is mentioned in an hadith some place.
Ok with the above in mind if its not too much trouble for you brother , can you please give me a detailed descrtiption of how you would read 3/4 farz behind the imaam
ok.
You do the niyat - say Allahu akbar - subana kala huma wabi humdi ka ....-Then read surah fatiha & a surah (depending on which view you follow whether to read or not to read) - then ruku (read subhana rabi el azeem) then sajdah twice(read subhana rabbi el a'alaa) - 1st rakaat over !
Stand up & start with surah fatiha & a surah (depending on which view you follow whether to read or not to read)then ruku (read subhana rabi el azeem) then sajdah twice(read subhana rabbi el a'alaa) -then read attahiyaatu lillahi .........
2nd rakaat over !
Stand up & Read Surah Fatiha -then ruku (read subhana rabi el azeem) then sajdah twice(read subhana rabbi el a'alaa)
3rd rakaat over !
Stand up & Read Surah Fatiha -then ruku (read subhana rabi el azeem) then sajdah twice(read subhana rabbi el a'alaa) -then read attahiyaatu lillahi .........-then durood shareef -then Dua - then salaam.
In the Hanafi school of thought, you do NOT say any surah in any namaaz behind Imam NOT even surah Fatiha. You read thanna (subhana..) and stay quiet throughout the whole namaaz. This applies to Zhur and Asr as well.

Example, isha salaat, if the person recited surah ikhlas in the first 2 rakaats, it is still accepted.
