The traveler's shortening of the 'Isha' prayer with the Maghrib congregation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The questioner says: If I am traveling and have prayed the Maghrib prayer, and I want to pray the 'Isha' prayer shortened and combined with the Maghrib, and I find a congregation praying the Maghrib, do I pray with them, sit, or stand for the third rak'ah, or do I pray alone?

The Shaykh:
Repeat the question.

The questioner:
He says: If I am traveling and have prayed the Maghrib prayer, and I want to pray the 'Isha' prayer shortened and combined with the Maghrib, and I find a congregation praying the Maghrib, do I pray with them and sit, or stand for the third rak'ah, or do I pray alone?

The Shaykh:
Pray with them and complete the prayer; because the Maghrib prayer is not shortened, so you pray with them, and when the imam says the taslim from the third rak'ah, you stand and perform the fourth. Yes.
