Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks: When am I considered to have caught the congregational prayer?
Answer:
The correct view is that the congregational prayer is caught by catching one rak'ah. Some scholars hold that it is caught by saying the takbir before the imam’s taslim, but the correct view is the first one: that it is caught by catching one rak'ah. This is because, as established in the hadith, the time is caught by catching one rak'ah of it, and so it is with the congregation. Yes.
