Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, I prayed the Fajr prayer in congregation and joined the imam in the tashahhud. When the imam said the taslim, I stood up and completed the prayer for myself. Another man joined me while I was praying and made me his imam, and a third man came and prayed with us. What is the ruling on this prayer of mine?
Answer:
It is better that he not join. Yes, the one who arrives late should not join the masbuq unless there was an agreement between them beforehand, in which case there is no harm. But if there was no agreement, it is better that he not join the masbuq; he should wait until someone comes to pray with him. Yes.
