Question:
If a person is a ma'mum (praying behind the imam) and the imam finishes his prayer, but the ma'mum still has two rak'ahs remaining, and the people in front of him stand up and leave, and there is a sutrah nearby, should he move closer to it, or stay in his place?
Answer:
If he fears something, he should move forward; otherwise, he stays in his place, and that is sufficient, and praise be to Allah. If he fears that people will pass by, he moves forward.
Q: What if he is in the Haram, far from the Ka'bah?
The Shaykh: Even if he is, as long as he is inside the mosque, he does not need a sutrah.
