Is it true that someone praying at home should offer their salaat after the jamaat of the local masjid has been completed?
Question
For example if Asr begins at say 2:45pm and the jamaat of the mosque is at 3:55pm. Is the person who is praying at home required to read it after 3:55pm. Jazakallah.
Answer
This is not necessary. one may read Salaat at home as soon as the time enters.
