Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I prayed the 'Isha' prayer shortened behind an imam who was praying Maghrib, and he had already prayed one rak'ah. So, should I say the closing salam with him?
Answer:
No, he is required to complete the prayer, because the Maghrib prayer is complete and is not shortened, so he is required to complete it. Yes.
