Question:
If a person enters the mosque, and before he begins to perform the greeting of the mosque, the mu'adhdhin calls the adhan, should he sit until the adhan is finished, then stand up and pray? Or should he remain standing? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
It is better to combine the two recommended practices: he responds to the mu'adhdhin while standing, then prays the two rak'ahs. If that is difficult for him, he prays the two rak'ahs, even if the adhan is being called. However, if it is easy for him to stand until he responds to the mu'adhdhin, then he prays the two rak'ahs, thus combining the two recommended practices. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good and do you good.
