Entering the prayer during the tashahhud

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This man asks, may Allah bless you: If I enter the mosque and they are in the final tashahhud, should I wait, or should I enter with them?

Answer:
If you know that people are coming, wait for them and pray in congregation; because the first congregation has passed you by. But if you do not know that anyone is coming, then enter with them to obtain the reward. Do not pray while they are praying, and do not delay entering with them, for you would deprive yourself of the reward. Yes.
