Q:
1) If a person is in jamaat and the ameer tells him to do something that will cause him to miss Takbir-e-oola, should he obey?
2) If a person is in jamaat and the ameer tells him to do something like asking a Muslim lady they see walking if she knows where the Muslims gather for salaah.
A:
1. The ameer should realise that he does not order anybody to do anything that will amount in the person missing out his takbeer-e-oola.
2. If he does not fears any fitnah it is permissible.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
