Question:
The questioner says: If I come to the congregation and they are in the final tashahhud, is the congregational prayer recorded for me? If so, what is the case? If I come to the congregation and they are in the final tashahhud, is the congregational prayer recorded for me? Do we know what the case is? If I come to the congregation and they are in the final tashahhud, is the congregational prayer recorded for me? All right, so what is it? You are the congregation, and I am on the radio. A person comes to the congregation and they are in the final tashahhud; is the congregational prayer recorded for him?

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Mishkat al-Masabih 1412 One does not catch it except by a rak'ah, and he must hasten and participate in it so that he catches it all. He said (peace and blessings be upon him): Muwatta Malik 1:15 So he must hasten and strive to arrive before the iqamah, so that he catches it all.
