Question:
Another question is asked, saying: What is the ruling on a person performing an obligatory prayer following a person performing a voluntary prayer?
Answer:
There is no harm in that; his prayer is valid. If a person is performing a voluntary prayer and leads people who are performing an obligatory prayer, his prayer and theirs are valid. It is established in the two Sahihs: He used to pray the Isha prayer with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), then he would go to his people and pray that prayer with them. He was performing a voluntary prayer while they were performing an obligatory one, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not disapprove of that. Such a matter would not be hidden from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), as it is established from him (peace and blessings be upon him): . So the first prayer was his obligatory prayer, and the second was voluntary for him, but it was obligatory for the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them and grant them satisfaction). By this, it is known that there is no harm in the imam being in a voluntary prayer while the one following him is in an obligatory prayer. Yes.
