Obeying the ameer
Question
1) If a person is in jamaat and the ameer tells him to do something that will cause him to miss Takbir-e-oola, should he obey?
2) If a person is in jamaat and the ameer tells him to do something like asking a Muslim lady they see walking if she knows where the Muslims gather for salaah.
Answer
1. The ameer should realise that he does not order anybody to do anything that will amount in the person missing out his takbeer-e-oola.
2. If he does not fears any fitnah it is permissible.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
