The 'Isha' prayer behind an imam who is praying Maghrib
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, Musafir prayed Maghrib while on the road, then he found a congregation praying Maghrib, so he joined them with the intention of 'Isha', and he prayed two rak'ahs, then he sat down and did not stand up with them, and he said the taslim. To what extent does his action conform to the Sunnah?
Answer:
What appears to me is that this is not valid. Disobeying the imam; the imam who is praying three while you pray two, this is disobedience. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saidSahih al-Bukhari 1236, so pray behind him and complete the prayer with four. We return to the original, which is the chain of narration. Yes.

إنما جعل الإمام ليؤتم به
