Entering with a person praying alone in the obligatory prayer to form a congregation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If I find a man praying the obligatory prayer alone, should I pray with him and join him so that it becomes a congregational prayer?

Answer:
That is fine. There is nothing wrong with that. Yes.
