The ma'mum following the imam in the sitting of rest

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Likewise, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, another questioner says: If the imam performs the sitting for rest, is it obligatory for the one praying behind him to follow him in it, or may he stand up before him?

Answer:
He does not follow his imam in what precedes his imam; he sits with him for the rest. There is no harm in that.
