Chapter on the Virtue of Mosques and Prayer Within Them, and the Virtue of Congregational Prayer and Its Rulings

أَحْمَدُ بْنُ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُصَدِّقِ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَدْرَكَ اَلْإِمَامَ وَ هُوَ جَالِسٌ بَعْدَ اَلرَّكْعَتَيْنِ قَالَ« يَفْتَتِحُ اَلصَّلاَةَ وَ لاَ يَقْعُدُ مَعَ اَلْإِمَامِ حَتَّى يَقُومَ»
Ahmad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ali from Amr ibn Saeed from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqah from Ammar who said: I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about a man who catches the imam (of prayer) while he is sitting after the two rak‘ahs. Imam عليه السلام said: “He should begin the prayer anew and should not sit with the imam (of prayer) until the imam (of prayer) stands.”
