It is preferable for the imam, if he hears someone entering the mosque while he is bowing, to wait

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: If the imam is in bowing and hears some of the worshippers hurrying to catch the bowing, is it permissible for him to wait or not?

A: It is preferable for the imam in this situation not to hasten to rise, but in a way that does not burden the worshippers praying with him, so that those who sensed their entry can catch the bowing with him, out of eagerness to catch the unit of prayer for them. And there came from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) what indicates the recommendation of that.
