Praying as a follower behind a follower who joined the prayer late
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Shaykh, what is the ruling on one who prays as a follower behind a follower who joined the prayer late?
Answer:
I do not know of any evidence for this; because a follower does not become an imam unless the imam appoints him as his deputy. That is what I know. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good, Honorable Shaykh.
