The ruling on the takbir of the latecomer when the imam is bowing
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a ma'mum joins the prayer while the imam is bowing, does he say the takbir twice? And if he says only one takbir, what is the ruling on his prayer?
Answer:
If he joins while the imam is bowing, it is obligatory for him to say the takbir of ihram while standing, and then when he descends into bowing, he says the takbir of transition. This is a recommended practice (sunnah) in this position; it is a recommended practice. As for the takbir of ihram, it is a pillar; if he leaves it out, his prayer is not valid. As for the takbir of bowing in this case, it is a recommended practice; if he leaves it out, he owes nothing.
