The time for the ma'mum to stand for prayer upon the iqamah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
When does the one who is praying alone stand up in prayer? Does he stand at the beginning of the gathering? Or when the mu'adhdhin says, "The prayer has begun"? And what is it, may Allah grant you success?

Answer:
There is a distinction regarding standing for prayer upon the iqamah. If the imam is present and he sees him, he stands when the mu'adhdhin says, "The prayer has begun." However, if he does not see the imam after he has arrived, he does not stand until he sees him; he does not stand until he sees him. For example, suppose the imam entered with the door, and the mu'adhdhin began the iqamah for the prayer, but the imam has not yet arrived. The one in front of them waits until the imam arrives; he waits while sitting. Yes.

The presenter:
Yes.
