Bayhaqi 2885 — Those who said the follower does not recite in prayers

قَالَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: {وَإِذَا قُرِئَ الْقُرْآنُ فَاسْتَمِعُوا لَهُ وَأَنْصِتُوا} [الأعراف: 204] قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى فِي الْقَدِيمِ: فَهَذَا عِنْدَنَا عَلَى الْقِرَاءَةِ الَّتِي تُسْمَعُ خَاصَّةً.
Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, says: "And when the Qur'an is recited, listen to it attentively and remain silent." [Surah al-A'raf: 204]
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah Almighty have mercy on him) said in his earlier (old) opinion: "In our view, this ruling applies specifically to recitation that is heard."
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ بِشْرَانَ الْعَدْلُ بِبَغْدَادَ، أنبأ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا سَعْدَانُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، ثنا مِسْكِينُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ الْحَرَّانِيُّ، عَنْ ثَابِتِ بْنِ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: " الْمُؤْمِنُ فِي سَعَةٍ مِنَ الِاسْتِمَاعِ إِلَيْهِ إِلَّا فِي صَلَاةٍ مَفْرُوضَةٍ أَوْ مَكْتُوبَةٍ، أَوْ يَوْمِ جُمُعَةٍ أَوْ يَوْمِ فِطْرٍ أَوْ يَوْمِ أَضْحَى، يَعْنِي إِذَا قُرِئَ الْقُرْآنُ فَاسْتَمِعُوا لَهُ وَأَنْصِتُوا " وَرُوِّينَا مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ لَيْسَ بِالْقَوِيِّ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ قَالَ: هَذَا لِكُلِّ قَارِئٍ؟ قَالَ: لَا وَلَكِنْ هَذَا فِي الصَّلَاةِ.
(a) Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The believer has latitude regarding listening to the recitation of the Qur'an, except in an obligatory prayer, or on Friday, or on the day of Eid al-Fitr, or on the day of Eid al-Adha; meaning: "And when the Qur'an is recited, listen to it attentively and remain silent." [Surah al-A'raf: 204]
(b) Through another, weak chain it has reached us that Ata (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I asked Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) about this verse: Is it for every reciter? He said: No, rather it is only for the prayer.
