The traveler who catches the last two rak'ahs of the 'Isha' prayer with the congregation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: If I am traveling and I catch the congregation for the 'Isha' prayer in the last two rak'ahs, do I suffice with these two rak'ahs, or am I required to complete the prayer?
Answer:
The prayer, I mean, do you suffice with just two rak'ahs? No, if you enter with an imam who is completing the prayer, you are required to complete it, even if you did not come until just before the taslim, you are required to complete it, because the ma'mum follows the ruling of the imam, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saidSahih al-Bukhari 1236 Complete the prayer. The ma'mum is required to complete it and does not shorten it behind him. Rather, if the imam is shortening the prayer for travel, then the ma'mum, if he is a resident, it is not permissible for him to shorten; he stands and completes the prayer after the imam has said the taslim. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
