The ruling on praying a voluntary prayer when the obligatory prayer has been called for
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 421Sahih (Darussalam) Does this include the sunnah prayer that its performer has just started, and in which he is when the iqamah is called?
Answer:
The hadith mentioned includes the prayer that one begins at the time of entering the congregation; it is not permissible for him to do so, and he must join the imam in the state he is in. Likewise, the one who is in a voluntary prayer when the iqamah is called must break it off because of the hadith mentioned, unless he is in the second bowing or after it, in which case he completes it briefly, then joins the imam; because what he catches up in this case is less than a rak'ah, so it does not fall under the hadith mentioned; due to the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Muwatta Malik 1:15 It was narrated by Muslim in his Sahih. Breaking off the prayer is done by intention and does not require the taslim. And success is from Allah.
When the Iqamah has been called for the Salat then there is no Salat except the obligatory.

Whoever catches a raka of the prayer has caught the prayer.
