Question:
If a man enters the mosque and the imam is in the final tashahhud, does he join him or wait in case another congregation comes?
Answer:
If he hopes, or it is more likely in his opinion, that someone will come, he waits. But if he does not know and it is not more likely in his opinion that someone will come, he joins him so that he may obtain the reward. He obtains the reward and does not sit waiting, for he would miss the reward. Yes.
