The resident praying behind the traveling imam
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Summary: The traveling imam, and he is aware of it.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
Repeat. Repeat.
The Shaykh:
What?
The questioner:
He says: The prayer behind the traveling imam.
The Shaykh:
There is no harm in the resident praying behind the traveler, except that he completes the prayer. When the traveler finishes with the taslim and has shortened the prayer, the resident stands up and completes his prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said in the year of the Conquest: He (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed with them and shortened the prayer, and when he finished with the taslim, they stood up and completed the prayer for themselves. And the reverse is the same: the traveler prays behind the resident, but he is required to complete the prayer. If the traveler prays behind the resident, the traveler is required to complete the prayer following his imam. This is the Sunnah, and this is the opinion of the majority of the scholars. Yes.
