Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if we enter the mosque and find a congregation that has already prayed Maghrib, is it permissible for us to pray in congregation in the mosque, even though we have already made up the Maghrib prayer? Is this better than praying in congregation silently?
Answer:
Do not pray in congregation. If you miss the prayer with the imam, you should pray in congregation, and you should not pray individually. This is not permissible. It is not permissible for a person to pray individually while a congregation is available. Yes.
