Pearl of Wisdom

that Prophet Moses (AS) addressed Allah, saying, my Lord, guide me to an action the performance of which will earn me Your good pleasure.' So Allah revealed to him, ?O son of Amran, verily My pleasure lies in that which you will be averse to and you will not be able to endure it.' So Moses fell prostrate, weeping and cried out, my Lord! You have selected me to speak to when You have not spoken to any before me, and yet You do not guide me to that action by which I may earn Your pleasure!' So Allah revealed to him, 'Verily My pleasure lies in your pleasure with whatever I decree.'

RULING NO. 1436 OF AYATULLAH AL-SISTANI DAMA-DHILLUHU IN ISLAMIC LAWS

If a person joins the Imam at the time of Ruku, and participates in Ruku of the Imam, his prayer is in order, even if the Zikr by the Imam may have come to an end. It will be treated as one Rak’at. However, if he goes to Ruku and misses the Imam’s Ruku, he can complete his prayers as Furada.

QUESTION 1

However, if he goes to Ruku and misses the Imam’s Ruku, he can complete his prayers as Furada.

Am I correct to understand that since he has already gone to Ruku he will continue his Furada prayer from Ruku and it will be counted as his first Rak’at though he did not recite the Qir’at (Surah Al-Hamd and other Surah of the Holy Qur’an).
---------------------------------------
RULING NO. 1434 OF AYATULLAH AL-SISTANI DAMA-DHILLUHU IN ISLAMIC LAWS

If a person joins the Imam when he is in Ruku, but before he bows to Ruku, the Imam raises his head from his Ruku, that person has a choice either to complete his prayers as Furada, or to continue with the Imam up to Sajdah, with the Niyyah of Qurbat. Then when he stands, he can do Takbir other than Takbiratul Ihram, as a general Zikr, and continue with the congregation.

QUESTION 2

If he decides to complete his prayer as Furada, am I correct to understand that since it was before he bows to Ruku (or was in the process of bowing for Ruku but did not reach the level of Ruku), he must recite Qir’at (Surah Al-Hamd and other Surah of the Holy Qur’an) to continue his prayer as Furada.
----------------------------------------
QUESTION 3

A Pesh-Imam leading Jumu’ah Prayer made an error, i.e. did two Ruku in one Rak’at or his Wudhu was broken, etc. which resulted in the Jumu’ah prayer becoming invalid.

Under the above circumstances:

Qa]Can he lead Salatul Jumu’ah again? Can the Salatul Jumu’ah be prayed again?

Qb] If the answer is “No”, then Zuhr prayers will have to be prayed with Wajib Niyyah in which case can the Zuhr Salat be prayed in congregation?
----------------------------------------
QUESTION 4

The starting of Khutbah of Jumu’ah was delayed for more than 10-15 minutes because of the lack of presence of 5 Mu'mineen including the Imam or the Imam was late in arriving.

As I understand, according to the ruling of Ayatullah Al-Sistani Dama-Dhilluhu, if the starting of Khutba is delayed for more than 10-15 minutes, while Salatul Jumuah can be prayed, it will not be sufficient and Zuhr prayer will have to be prayed with a wajib niyyah.

Under the above circumstances explained, can the Zuhr Salat be prayed in congregation?
Answered
