The questioner : The statement of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to the one praying, repeating the disapproval, and what did you elaborate on, O Shaykh...
The Shaykh : And what does it mean...
The questioner : What did you elaborate on...
The Shaykh : Yes, absolutely, even if it is an obligatory prayer. So when the prayer is called for, there is no prayer except the one that was called for, as explained by the narration of Ahmad. So if a person starts a missed prayer, for example, he starts the midday prayer, and then the imam comes and the afternoon prayer is called for, if he is in the first unit, he breaks it off. Do you understand? Yes.
