The Ruling on Following a Latecomer in Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on following a masbuq (one who joins the prayer late) in prayer, O Shaykh?
Answer:
A masbuq (one who joins the prayer late) cannot be an imam; because he is a ma'mum (one praying behind the imam). Since the masbuq (one who joins the prayer late) was a ma'mum (one praying behind the imam), he does not become an imam. Yes.
