Entering the 'Isha' prayer with the imam with the intention of Maghrib
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I slept through the Maghrib prayer and did not wake up until the mu'adhdhin was calling the iqamah for the 'Isha' prayer.
The Shaykh:
We intend.
The questioner:
I slept through the Maghrib prayer and did not wake up until the mu'adhdhin was calling the iqamah for the 'Isha' prayer. So I joined the congregation while they were praying 'Isha', intending to pray Maghrib. I prayed three rak'ahs and remained sitting; I did not say the taslim until the imam said it in the fourth rak'ah, so I said it with him. Is my action valid?
The Shaykh:
Yes, the ruling is that you have a choice: either you say the taslim for yourself, or you wait and say it with the imam. Yes.
