Bowing before entering the row, as Abu Bakrah did
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: A man entered the mosque while the imam was in bowing, before the imam raised his head. This man bowed before entering the row, as Abu Bakrah did. Is this permissible for him?
Answer:
It is not permissible for him to do so, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade it. However, since he did it and entered the row, his prayer is valid. Yes.
