The Ruling on Praying in Congregation in a Separate Building

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We move on to another question from the questions in this episode of the program Nur 'ala al-Darb. The questioner, Abu Mu'adh, says: What is the ruling on praying in congregation in a building separate from the imam, out of necessity?

The Shaykh:
If they cannot see the imam or those behind him, they do not pray with him; rather, they pray on their own as an independent congregation with their own imam.

The presenter:
May Allah bless you. This one is asking, Your Presence

The Shaykh:
They must be behind the imam, so they should be in a room or a place in front of the imam. Yes.
