What is the ruling on prolonging the taslim, or pausing between the two, or standing up before the imam has finished his taslim?

Question : Estimating the duration of the second taslim. Does he prolong it?

Answer : Yes. The one who is silent stands up without knowing. Yes. It is the sunnah (recommended practice) not to follow it. And not to pause between the two taslims. Some imams, after saying "Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy," say "Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy," and there is no need to pause between them; they are consecutive. And some imams say "Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy," then "Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy," as if gesturing to someone in front of him. This also has no basis. So from the moment you say the salam, from the moment you begin the phrase, begin the movement of turning your head, so that the completion of the turn is at the word "upon you," because you are addressing the people behind you. As for those who stand up before the second taslim, if they did it intentionally, their prayer is invalid (batil); if they were ignorant, they owe nothing, and they should be advised and informed. Yes. With blood and hunger. If they know, yes, they are required to return, especially if we hold that both taslims are a rak'ah (unit of prayer), because the imam's prayer has not yet been completed.
