We prayed Maghrib in congregation, and the imam was leading the people in 'Isha', so did he object to us?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I entered the mosque to perform the Maghrib prayer, and it was raining at the time. I found that the congregation had already prayed, and then they began the 'Isha' prayer. So I and those with me prayed Maghrib in a separate congregation, apart from the main congregation. The imam of the mosque objected to us regarding this matter. Is his objection correct?
Answer:
No, it is not correct. What you did is the correct thing, if Allah wills. You pray Maghrib first, then you pray the remainder of the 'Isha' prayer with the imam. Yes.
