Is it permissible to have multiple congregational prayers after the imam has finished his prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible to have multiple congregational prayers, O Shaykh, immediately after the imam has finished his prayer?

The Shaykh : It is not permissible.

The questioner : It is not permissible.

The Shaykh : Not at all.

The questioner : How do you mean, O Shaykh, regarding the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, one of the Companions, came and said:
Who will give charity to this man? من يتصدَّق على هذا الرجل ؟
Sahih Ibn Hibban 10:693
.

The Shaykh : First, 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud is not in the hadith. Second, the hadith does not indicate repeating the congregation that was already prayed; rather, it is a voluntary congregation. This is because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Is there any man who may do good with this (man) and pray along with him. أَلَا رجلٌ يتصدَّق على هذا فيُصلي معه ؟!
Sunan Abi Dawud 574Sahih (Al-Albani)
. Who is the one giving charity here, and who is the one giving charity?

The questioner : The one giving charity here is the one who stood up in the mosque and prayed with the two who came to the mosque.

The Shaykh : So, is he the one who had already prayed with the first congregation?

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : Okay; does this scenario apply to the second and third congregations?

The questioner : No, of course.

The Shaykh : So, it is not valid to cite this as evidence.

Another questioner : Okay; is there a prayer in a mosque on the road, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh : That is another matter to consider.
Yes.

The questioner : Shaykh, he says: I own a commercial shop, and I conduct transactions with another person at intervals of less than a year. Do I have to pay the right of zakah for every transaction, or is it taken from the value of the capital and profits after a lunar year has passed?

The Shaykh : Excuse me, my brother, you are blocking the road.
