Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a man missed the 'Asr prayer with the congregation. Is it permissible for someone who sees him in the mosque to give him charity and pray with him, even though it is a time of prohibition?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. He prays with him to complete the congregation instead of praying alone. This is based on the saying of the Prophet
(peace and blessings be upon him) said: Who will give charity to this man and pray with him?صلى الله عليه وسلم مَنْ يَتَصَدَّقُ عَلَى هَذَا فَيُصَلِّيَ مَعَهُ.
Sahih Ibn Hibban 10:694
when a man came who had missed the prayer. Yes.
