The ruling on hurrying in walking to catch the opening takbir
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: If I stand up for the prayer and I am entering the mosque, is it obligatory for me to hurry in the mosque in order to catch the opening takbir and pray in the first row? It is known that the delay in going to the prayer was due to an excuse.
Answer:
The jurists have mentioned that there is no harm if the opening takbir is missed, that one should hurry with a certain degree of speed, not intense speed, but a type of speed that lightens the step in order to catch the opening takbir, or catch the bowing, or catch the congregation. So if one fears that the opening takbir will be missed, or that the bowing will be missed, or that the congregation will be missed, there is no harm in hurrying with a relative speed, not intense speed.
