Congregational Salah

[Dawud1UK]

Salam alejkum,

Firstly I apologise for flooding the topic with questions.

I have a few questions regarding congregational salah for fajr, dhur, asr, maghrib, isha and jummah.

What are the rules the Shia way?

1. Do you recite surah al-fatiha and second surah behind the imam when he does or do you just listen? Does this differ between each raka'a?

2. Do you recite while going into ruku, sujoud and the salaams as well?

jazakAllah.

Salaam,

You are just meant to listen to the Surahs and stay silent. Everything else, you recite yourself quietly.

Ayatollah Sistani:

1470. It is necessary for the follower to recite all the things of the prayers himself, except Surah al-Hamd and the other Surah.

Also, since the Imam would be doing the Qiraat in an inaudible voice in the Dhuhr and Asr prayers (so you can not hear his recitation) you should recite Dhikr to yourself during this time.
