Answer:

 

Can one pray after blind Imam?

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

There is absolutely no restriction in Islam in praying in congregation behind an ‘imam’ who is blind. One of the noble companions of the Prophet (saws), Hadrat Abdullah ibn Maktoum (r.a.) who was blind, was twice appointed by the Prophet (saws) himself to lead the believers in prayer in the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah when the Prophet (saws) was traveling out of Madinah.

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your Brother in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
