The ruling on praying Maghrib behind someone who is praying 'Isha'
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: I was traveling to one of the cities, and at the time of the Maghrib prayer, I prayed the 'Isha' prayer with the imam, joining him in the second rak'ah. Is my prayer valid?
The Shaykh:
Repeat the question?
The questioner:
I was traveling to one of the cities, and at the time of the Maghrib prayer, I prayed the 'Isha' prayer with the imam, joining him in the second rak'ah and completing the taslim with him. Is my prayer valid?
The Shaykh:
How many rak'ahs did he pray? Three rak'ahs. If he prayed three rak'ahs, that is the Maghrib prayer, which he prayed behind someone who was praying 'Isha'. If he had prayed Maghrib in its proper time or with people like him, that would have been better, but we do not say that his prayer is invalid in this manner, because he prayed three rak'ahs of Maghrib behind someone who was praying 'Isha'. There is no harm in that, if Allah wills.
