Answer to the hadith of the man who missed the obligatory prayer, where the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to his companions: Who will give charity to this man?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : What we observe in some mosques, due to negligence regarding correct knowledge, is that three or four people arrive late for the congregational prayer. One of them steps forward to lead, and the others pray behind him. Who is the one giving charity, and who is the one receiving it? No one is. Why? Because in the situation that occurred with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the one giving charity was the wealthy one, who had gained the virtue of praying with the first congregation, and secondly, behind the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He is the wealthy one. As for the poor one, he is the one who missed this virtue and is the one who wanted to pray behind him. As for the one who wanted to pray alone, as for this one whom the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) encouraged to pray behind him, he said to him: Sunan Abi Dawud 574Sahih (Al-Albani) So, he gave charity to him, and the congregation was established through him, so he is the one giving charity. As for the poor one, he is the imam. As for the second congregation that occurs today, they are all poor because they missed the first congregation. In short, this hadith has no relation to the second congregation.
