Most Sunni jurists allow performing every [[Supererogatory prayer|mustahab prayer]] congregationally, however Malikis and Hanafis believe that performing some mustahab prayers (other than what is performed in the month of [[Ramadan]]) and [[Ayat prayer]] congregationally, is [[makruh]] (disliked). On the other hand, Shi's [[jurisprudent]]s do not allow this at all, except for [[Istisqa' prayer]] (prayer for rain), and count every mustahab prayer done congregationally, as [[bid'a]] (innovation in the religion). | Most Sunni jurists allow performing every [[Supererogatory prayer|mustahab prayer]] congregationally, however Malikis and Hanafis believe that performing some mustahab prayers (other than what is performed in the month of [[Ramadan]]) and [[Ayat prayer]] congregationally, is [[makruh]] (disliked).

There is almost the same way of how to perform a congregational prayer in all [[Islamic sects]]. [[Imam of prayer]] (who leads the prayer) recites [[sura al-Fatiha]] and a [[Sura]] in the two first [[rak'a]]s in behalf of the people following him in prayer, though the people behind him recite other parts quietly, while following the Imam in prayer moves and actions. | There is almost the same way of how to perform a congregational prayer in all [[Islamic sects]].

A ma'mum (follower in prayer) must not do the prayer acts ahead of the Imam, although it does not invalidate his prayer in the view of majority of [[Shi'a]] and some [[Sunni]] scholars. Some [[jurists]] believe that following the [[Imam]] in prayer acts is the condition of the validity of the prayer but others believe it is the condition of its recognition as a congregational prayer. | A ma'mum (follower in prayer) must not do the prayer acts ahead of the Imam, although it does not invalidate his prayer in the view of majority of [[Shi'a]] and some [[Sunni]] scholars.
