The ruling on one who says the closing salam before completing the prayer, then makes up what he missed after speaking
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Shaykh, one day we were praying the 'Asr prayer. When the imam wanted to say the salam, he prostrated the prostration for forgetfulness. When we said the salam and made up what we missed, a conversation happened after the prayer. When he made up the missed part of the hadith, the congregation asked why he prostrated for forgetfulness? He said, "It was as if I heard one person say, 'Glory be to Allah.' One person said, 'I said, Glory be to Allah, because you did not complete the prayer.' He hurriedly completed the rak'ah, and they stood up and completed the rak'ah after the hadith. I mean, some of the congregation left, but they completed the rak'ah after the hadith. I mean, is it valid, or did the prayer need to be repeated?"
The Shaykh:
By Allah, if the interval was long, the prayer must be repeated. As for if it was...
The questioner:
By Allah, it was about five minutes.
The presenter:
Okay, listen to the answer.
The questioner:
Understood.
The presenter:
Listen to the answer. Yes? Listen to the answer.
The questioner:
Yes.
The Shaykh:
If the interval was long, if he sat and chatted and read from the book, that is a long interval, so repeating the prayer is undoubtedly the safer course, yes.
The presenter:
Thank you, thank you, may Allah bless you, thank you. May you be well.
