Catching a Rak'ah for One Who Bows After the Imam Rises from Bowing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I came to the prayer and said the takbir of ihram, and the imam was in ruku'. I bowed after the imam had risen from ruku'. Do I count this rak'ah?

Answer:
If your hands reach your knees before the imam rises, you have caught the rak'ah. If the imam rises before your hands reach your knees, you have missed the rak'ah.
