(Follow me, and let those after you follow you) Is there evidence in it for praying behind the masbuq?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Some scholars have cited this hadith, which al-Bukhari mentioned as a hanging narration: Sahih Muslim 438a They said this is the basis and evidence for one who comes and prays behind the ma'mum, meaning the masbuq, when the imam has finished his prayer and the masbuq is completing his own prayer; he comes and follows him, citing this hadith as evidence?
The Shaykh : No, it does not contain such an indication. Because his saying "those after you" means "those behind you." Here, "after" means "behind." The first row, and behind it is called the second row, and behind that the third row. As for the masbuq praying in congregation after the imam's taslim, this has not been reported from the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them). Therefore, the jurists differed on this matter: some permitted it, some disliked it, and some forbade it. Yes.
