Did Ibn Baz say that raising one's voice when sending blessings upon the Prophet is a misguided innovation and must be forbidden?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
No has been reported from Sheikh Ibn Baz generally prohibiting raising the voice with prayers upon the Prophet (peace be upon him). Rather, he issued a fatwa stating that raising the voice with it between the rak'ahs of Tarawih is an innovation (bid'ah); this is because there is no religious text specifically allocating this time for praying upon the Prophet (peace be upon him), especially if done with a collective voice that disturbs the worshippers.
