The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: I prayed behind an imam who does not settle down in his prayer; rather, he hastens very much. I left the prayer and prayed on my own. Is my action correct?
The Shaykh:
Left where?
The questioner:
I left the prayer and prayed on my own. Is my action correct?
The Shaykh:
If he hastens to the extent that it affects the pillars and obligations, do not pray with him. But if the haste does not affect the obligations, do not leave; pray with him. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: One of the companies in Hajj collected the stoning of the pillars for some of the pilgrims
The Shaykh:
And the matter, I mean, it is not about leaving if the imam is not suitable due to a defect in him; do not leave the prayer. But as for praying alone, as for praying alone, complete your prayer and say the closing salam. Yes. Do not cut off the prayer. As for praying alone, pray for yourself and then leave. Yes.
