إِذَا سَبَقَكَ الْإِمَامُ بِرَكْعَةٍ فَأَدْرَكْتَ الْقِرَاءَةَ الْأَخِيرَةَ قَرَأْتَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ وَ هِيَ ثِنْتَانِ لَكَ وَ إِنْ لَمْ تُدْرِكْ مَعَهُ إِلَّا رَكْعَةً وَاحِدَةً قَرَأْتَ فِيهَا وَ فِي الَّتِي تَلِيهَا وَ إِنْ سَبَقَكَ بِرَكْعَةٍ جَلَسْتَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ لَكَ وَ الثَّالِثَةِ لَهُ حَتَّى تَعْتَدِلَ الصُّفُوفُ قِيَاماً قَالَ وَ قَالَ إِذَا وَجَدْتَ الْإِمَامَ سَاجِداً فَاثْبُتْ مَكَانَكَ حَتَّى يَرْفَعَ رَأْسَهُ وَ إِنْ كَانَ قَاعِداً قَعَدْتَ وَ إِنْ كَانَ قَائِماً قُمْتَ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Abdullah Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Aban Bin Usman, from Abdul Rahman Bin Abu Abdullah, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘When the Imam is ahead of you by one <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span> and you attain the last recitation, you should recite (for yourself) in the third from his <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>, and it would be the second for you; and if you do not attain with him except for one <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span>, you should recite in it and in the one which follows it. And if he is ahead of you by one <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span>, sit in the second one for you and it would be the third for him, until the rows are standing’.
