    Title: My question is regarding Iqama of the salat, as u know most of our brothers do what the Imam does due to lack of interest & knowledge about the DEEN.Since few months we are noticing that Imam after repeating the complete words of Iqama that is LA ILLAHA ILLALLAH adds Muhammad dur Rasoolallah, and the NAMAZIS also follow the same. It is humbly requested that please clarify the correct sunnah way of saying IQAMA words and also what one should repeat after HAI YA ALALSALAH & HAI YA ALALFALAH, because one of our Imam said when u heard HAI ALLALFALAH u have to say SADAQATA.

    (1) It is neither right to add محمد رسول الله after the last words of iqamah لا اله الا الله nor to repeat it for other people, rather it is against Sunnah.
    (2) He should say: صدقت و بررت.

    Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
