Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
From its sections, and from the questioner’s questions, he says: Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on one who prays as a follower behind a follower who joined the prayer late?
Answer:
He does not join the one who joined late. If someone came and missed the prayer, he prays with him; otherwise, he prays alone and does not join the one who joined late. This is because he is a follower, and a follower does not become an imam during the prayer unless the imam has appointed him as his deputy. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
