N.O.R.F Posted October 11, 2010 Ever walked into the mosque just as the prayer finished? The late comers look and shuffle towards each other with everyone not wanting to lead. Well, I was to lead after everyone made an excuse. I was even wearing 3 qtr length shorts but a few nudges and I had no choice. The nerves set in. Will I stutter? Will I get an ayah wrong? Sweat began to gather on my forehead. Those walking out had a quick look. The numbers behind me doubled and quadrupled before the 2nd rakca. A relief. Read quite well even if I say so my self. Probably the most nervous I have been since walking into my wedding heh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacaylbaro Posted October 11, 2010 Did i tell you the time i led prayers ? ,,, I finished while the whole Masjid was in the last Sujuud ,,,, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NGONGE Posted October 11, 2010 Done it once with three Arabs. The loudest one got to be Imam. It was Maghrib. He read suurat Al Naas. When he got to "Men Al Jinnati wal naas" he got it wrong and said (as many people do) "Men Al Jannati wal naas". One of the guys corrected him. He still repeated the line wrong. The guy corrected him again. He got it wrong a third time. The guy shouted "Men AL JINNATI wal naas, ya ximaar". They had a fight there and then and I had to break it. Meanwhile, the fourth guy was still standing in his place unsure of carrying on or stopping. I recall that scene every time I pray taraawix. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nuune Posted October 11, 2010 ^^ It is always crazy being surrounded by English speaking people, and the use of certain words such us sorry, excuse me etc. Recently I was leading a prayer at a local mosque, we missed the Jamaaca, it was a maghrib prayer, I recited some aayaat from Sura Taah, first Raka' went fine, second Rak'ak I made a mistake, still in Sura Taah though, aayad baa igu dhiiqatey oo ahaa kuwii ka hadlayey Nabi Muusa iyo Fircoon iyo Saaxiriintii soo muslimi jirtey, markey igu dhiiqatey ayaa waxaan iri "sorry sorry" markaan ogaadey inaan tiinbadey oy iga hallaawdey oon baxar galey ayaan gadaal u soo rogtey si la iiga badalo imaamnimada, qof kale ayaan horey u takhaantikhiyey lineka hore ku jirey si uu salaada u sii wado, anigii gadaal baan kala sii qabsadey salaada, rakcadii iga tagtey een ku tunteyna halkii ku gutey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacaylbaro Posted October 11, 2010 .... Still in Burco, it was maghrib and the Imam remembered that he is without ablution just after he finished the first Faataxa ,,,, he went out of the front door without appointing anyone to lead the prayers .......... it took a while ,,,, then the Mu'adin moved, took the microphone and told the people "WAAR MAXAAD QABANAYSAAN DEE SOWKAA IMAAMKII ISKA TEGEY" ,,,, I was there ,,,,,,,,,,,,, looooooooooooool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
