The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: I arrived after the congregational prayer had ended and found another group praying, but their imam was letting his garment hang below the ankles, so I left. Is my action correct?
The Shaykh:
Pray with them, pray with them, and the sin is on him. Advise him. The sin is on him, and advise him. As for the prayer, do not leave the prayer in congregation; pray with them. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
Perhaps he is ignorant and does not know. Yes.
