How to Pray Maghrib Behind Someone Praying 'Isha'
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: A man entered the mosque while traveling and found them praying 'Isha'. He had not yet prayed Maghrib, so he joined them. When the imam stood for the fourth rak'ah, he sat down. Is his action valid or not?
Answer:
Yes. If he joins them while they are praying 'Isha' with the intention of Maghrib, there is no harm in that. As this questioner did, when he completes the three rak'ahs, he sits and recites the final tashahhud. Then, if he wishes, he says the taslim for himself, and if he wishes, he waits until he says the taslim with the imam. Yes.
