Imaam reciting هـ instead of ح

· 14 Shawwal 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If the Imam recites "الرحمان الرحيم" with ه or in such a manner that you can’t tell if it’s a "ه" or "ح" then is Salaah broken? The Imam is capable of reciting “ح" with tajweed but recites too softly like this almost all the time.

Answer

The namaaz is valid.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
