The ma'mum's position when the imam stands for a fifth rak'ah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a person is a ma'mum and the imam is standing for the fifth rak'ah, and he did not sit for the final tashahhud, what should the ma'mum do if he is certain that the imam is in his fifth rak'ah, or if he suspects it?

Answer:
He does not follow him, he does not follow him; it is obligatory for him not to follow him. If he is a masbuq and stands to make up what he missed, or if the imam stands for his fifth rak'ah and he knows that it is his fifth, he separates from him and completes his prayer. Yes.
