The Obligation of Following the Imam
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q390: The questioner asks: If the imam says the takbir while rising from prostration, and the ma'mum is supplicating to Allah in his prostration and has not finished his supplication, is it permissible for him to complete it while rising from prostration?
A390: He must follow the imam and not lag behind him. Even if he has not finished his supplication, he must cut it short and follow the imam in his actions. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 1236
