Q&A › Preparation & choosing a spouse

🧭 Preparation & choosing a spouse · #147

My recitation of al-Fatihah still has many mistakes, yet I will be the family's imam. What should I do?

Correct your recitation of al-Fatihah first, because it is a pillar of prayer and determines whether your prayer and that of those behind you is valid. Find a Quran teacher who can hear your recitation face to face, whether at a mosque, surau or adult class. Focus on al-Fatihah and a few short surahs you will use when leading prayer. Record your recitation and compare it with a clear reciter. A little practice each day is more effective than a long class once a month. There is nothing shameful about relearning as an adult, and many men do it while preparing to marry. When you lead the prayer later, the whole family will feel that confidence. See congregational prayer guide.
