Question
in congregation and the imaam goes into rukoo’ and the former has not finished reciting
al-faatiha?
Praise be to Allah.
The person who is praying behind the imaam should do rukoo as soon
as the imaam does rukoo, because the Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allaah be
upon him) said: The imaam is appointed only to be followed, so when he prays
standing, pray standing; when he bows (does rukoo), bow; when he stands up again,
stand up again; when he says Sami Allaahu liman hamidah (Allaah hears
the one who praises Him), say, Rabbanaa wa lakal-hamd (Our Lord,
to You be praise). If he prays standing, then pray standing, and if he prays
sitting, then pray sitting, all of you.
