Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man missed the prayer, so he entered the mosque and saw a man praying this prayer while seated. Should he pray with him?
Answer:
No, this is specific to the imam of the neighborhood only. Otherwise, one does not pray behind a seated person if he is not the imam of the neighborhood and does not lead people in prayer. This is only specific to the seated person who is the imam of the neighborhood exclusively.
