Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I am a person who cannot read. I arrive at the mosque early. What is required of me if I engage in performing the prayer of the [missing word] until the iqamah? All right.
Answer:
If you come to the mosque and wait for the prayer, then if you wish to pray the [missing word] until the prayer is established, that is good. And if you wish to perform the greeting of the mosque and then sit, remembering Allah, making du'a, or reciting the Noble Qur'an, that is also good. Yes.
