Question

A man was praying with the Imam. He fell asleep while standing. Meanwhile, Imam Sahib was going to prostrate after ruku. Then he woke up and prostrated himself and joined the Imam in prostration. The thing to know is, has this person prayed? 2757519864


Answer

- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -

The prayer of that person has become valid. If no Rokon is performed with the Imam while he is in the prayer, the rule is to join the Imam by performing the Rokon alone. But falling asleep like this in prayer includes indifference. So we have to be careful that this never happens again. You should not stand in prayer with the pressure of sleep. 9174757513
