If a latecomer stands up after the imam’s closing salam to complete his prayer, is it permissible for him to be followed in that prayer?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: A man missed two rak'ahs of the 'Asr prayer,

Answer:
two rak'ahs. A man missed two rak'ahs of the 'Asr prayer, so when the imam said the salam, he stood up to make up the rest of the prayer. Then another person came and prayed with him. Is his prayer valid? It appears so, and Shaykh Ibn Baz issued a ruling permitting such a case, so there is nothing wrong with it, if Allah wills. Yes.
