The ruling on a traveler praying behind the imam in the 'Isha' prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person is traveling and finds a congregation praying the 'Isha' prayer, does he pray 'Isha' with them, and then pray Maghrib?
Answer:
He does not pray Maghrib first and then join them in 'Isha', nor does he join them with the intention of Maghrib. If they stand for the fourth rak'ah, he sits for the final tashahhud. He has the choice: if he wishes, he says the taslim for himself, and if he wishes, he waits for the imam and says the taslim with him. Yes.
