The imaam at our local mosque gives a speach after reading out the two khutbahs before reading the jummah farz. it is hanafi maslak mosque. he has been told not do this bayan by another alim but he does not listen. he says it is allowed by imaam shaafi. he also makes everyone perform zikr before magrib and after fajar. prays tahajjud namaaz with jamaat in ramadhan and other nights like laylatul barah. please can you give detailed reply with daleels as this alim does not listen to anyone and many hundred people follow him.
Answer:
(Fatwa: /=H)
It is not a time of speech after two khutbas before the Juma Salah, rather it is makrooh (undesirable). Yes, in case of emergency any essential thing can be said (like ‘switch your mobile off’).
Tahajjud can be offered with jamat of two three people, and it is makrooh if people are more.
