Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. We ask: What is the meaning of the statement of Abu Sa'id, Ibn al-Zubayr, and Ibn 'Umar, "If one catches a single unit (fard) of the prayer"? What is the meaning of "fard" in this context, and why does he have to perform a prostration?

Answer:
It means a rak'ah; that is, he catches one rak'ah of it. Yes.
