Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If you enter the mosque and the imam is in the final tashahhud, do you join him in the prayer, or do you wait until he finishes and then pray with another congregation? Please note that this happens very often.
Answer:
If you hear that people are coming, or are informed that people are coming, and the imam is in the final tashahhud, you wait for them so that you can pray in congregation. But if you are informed that only one person is coming, enter with the imam in what remains of the prayer so that you catch up before the imam continues. Enter with the imam in what remains so that you catch up before the imam continues, and you catch some of the congregation. It is better to pray and catch some of the congregation than to pray alone and catch nothing. Yes.
