Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I attended while the imam was in the final tashahhud, and the second congregation is almost certain to be present. Should I pray with the imam, even though I missed the prayer and only caught the final tashahhud, or should I wait for the other congregation?
Answer:
Yes, if you know or it is most likely in your mind that a congregation will be present, wait for them and pray with them, because the first congregation has passed you by; the congregation with the imam has passed you by.
