The ruling on praying 'Isha' behind someone who is praying Maghrib
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I am traveling, and I prayed Maghrib with a congregation. I wanted to combine 'Isha', but I joined a congregation that was late for the Maghrib prayer, so they called the iqamah. Is it permissible for me to join them with the intention of shortening the prayer for 'Isha', and what is the method?
Answer:
You join them, but you are required to complete the prayer, because Maghrib is not shortened. You are praying behind someone who is praying a prayer that is not shortened, which is Maghrib. So you complete 'Isha' with four rak'ahs. When they finish the third rak'ah, you stand up and complete the fourth. Yes. Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon
