Question :

What is the ruling on objecting to the Mosque Imam regarding the joining of prayers due to rain?



The Answer :

 

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon our Master, the Messenger of Allah.

 

It is not permissible for any of the congregants to object to the Imam in the mosque, whether the objection is to demand the joining of prayers or to oppose it; for the general principle is that the Imam possesses the religious knowledge (Al-Ilm al-Shar‘i) that qualifies him to make the decision in this matter. And Allah the Exalted knows best."
