Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: If the imam prolongs his sitting in the first tashahhud, and the ma'mum finishes reciting the first tashahhud, what does he do with the remaining time?
Answer:
He repeats the first tashahhud. There is no harm in sending blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) after the first tashahhud. He sends blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), because some scholars hold that this is obligatory.
