How does a non-traveller complete Salaah behind a traveller? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A. <\/strong>In a 4 Rakaat Salaah (Zuhr, Asr and Esha Salaah), if a non-traveller (Muqeem) is following a traveller (Musaafir), a non-traveller will follow a traveller until he completes his 2 Rakaats of Salaah. After the traveller makes Salaam, a non-traveller will <strong>not <\/strong>make Salaam. Rather, he will stand up and complete the remainder of his 2 Rakaats of Salaah.<\/p>\n<p>In this case, he is <strong>categorized<\/strong> as a <strong>Laahiq i.e. one who is still considered to be following the Imaam even though the Salaah of the Imaam is completed.<\/strong> Therefore, just as one does not recite Surah Faatiha behind the Imaam, a non-traveller will not recite Surah Faatihah in completing the remainder of his 2 Rakaats Salaah. He will simply wait for the duration it takes to recite Surah Faatihah <strong>(approximately 20 seconds)<\/strong> and then complete his Salaah as normal. <strong>(Tahtaawi Ala Maraaqil Falaah 1\/418-Fataawa Mahmoodiyyah 7\/526)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>N.B.<\/strong> The above ruling does not apply to a 2 and 3 Rakaat Salaah (Fajr and Maghrib Salaah) as both, the traveller and non-traveller perform the same number of Rakaats. There is no change in the number of Rakaats in these two Salaahs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Allah Ta\u2019ala Knows Best<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mufti Ismaeel Bassa<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>themufti.com<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How does a non-traveller complete Salaah behind a traveller?
