The ruling on entering the mosque while the imam is in the final tashahhud
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A group entered the mosque while the imam was in the final tashahhud. Do they establish the prayer, or do they wait for the imam to finish his taslim, and then establish the prayer after that?
Answer:
They do not enter with the imam to pray with him, and this is the correct solution, if Allah wills. We do not divide the people and say, “Wait until the imam finishes, then enter with the congregation,” and praise be to Allah. Yes.
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
Answer:
They enter, and when they stand up, one of them steps forward and prays with them. Some scholars hold this view.
