The ruling on following a latecomer to complete his prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible to follow a latecomer to complete one's prayer? What is the best course of action? If you find people whose benefit is in praying, pray with them.

Answer:
Or if you find someone praying with you from those in the mosque who have already prayed, and one of them volunteers to stand and pray with you, that is good. However, entering with someone who is being pushed is not recommended. If you do not find anyone to pray with, pray alone, and you are excused in this, because of the congregational prayer. Yes.
