Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
When is it prescribed to convert an obligatory prayer to a voluntary one, O Shaykh?
Answer:
If he is praying and the congregation starts, it is prescribed for him to cut it off, or make it a voluntary prayer of two rak'ahs, and then pray with the congregation. If he is a masbuq (one who joins the prayer late) and missed the prayer, then he said takbir alone, and then the congregation started, it is prescribed for him to make it a voluntary prayer, or cut it off, and pray with the people. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh, and may Allah bless you and your knowledge, and may He benefit Islam and the Muslims through you.
