The Opening on the Imam in Taraweeh
I pray Taraweeh behind my brother, and I have memorized the Quran and have a license in Tajweed. Is it permissible for me to correct him if he makes a mistake? Because they tell me that a woman is not allowed to correct a male imam.
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is permissible for you to correct your brother if he makes a mistake in the Taraweeh prayers, and there is no difference in the one correcting whether they are male or female, and God knows best.
