Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling for one who misses a pillar of the prayer behind the imam while he is praying, either because of the imam’s speed and his failure to consider the condition of the ma'mums, such as the elderly, or because of a ma'mum yawning to the extent that he does not catch the prostration with the imam.
Answer:
If one leaves a pillar of the prayer, it is as if he left a rak'ah. So when the imam says the taslim, he stands up and performs a complete rak'ah. Yes.
