Entering the prayer of one who is praying alone

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah forgive you. This questioner says: If I enter the mosque and find a person praying the obligatory prayer alone, and I have not yet prayed, is it permissible for me to join him with the intention of praying in congregation?

Answer:
Yes, that is good. If you find one person praying the obligatory prayer, or even a voluntary prayer, and you have missed the congregational prayer, join him. It is better than the messenger praying alone.
