And the afternoon prayer, and a group said that he should repeat all the prayers, but if he prayed in a group, should he repeat it in another group? Some say he should repeat it, and some say he should not repeat it. As for our doctrine in such a matter, the group is obligatory if he is able to do it, and if he is not able to do it, then he should pray alone, and if he catches up with the group, even if he prays. In a group, he prays with the group if he reaches it in response to his call for the iqamah. He continues the prayer, and it is a voluntary prayer for him in both cases, and he has the reward of the group if he is unable to do it.

When the Lawgiver appointed monologue for prayer, and the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said the hadith and it is in it, and I made the comfort of my eye in prayer a sign that he is one of the people of witnessing the truth in it in a more complete way than witnessing followers in

His saying about goodness is to worship God It is as if he sees him.

As for those who hold that he should not repeat the prayer, they are the knowers, just as those who believe in repeating it are the lovers. This is because the knowers knew that repeating it is impossible and that the manifestation that he had in his prayer was different from the manifestation that he had in the other prayer to an infinite amount of time, so when repetition was impossible for him. And the repetition of the divine expansion is not valid for him to repeat. The lover prays repeating while he does not know, and the knowledgeable prays not in the direction of repeating while he knows. Knowledge is the most noble of stations and love is the most honorable of states. And the one who combines the two stations is love and knowledge.

God Almighty said: They congratulate you that you have embraced Islam. Say, “Do not congratulate me on your conversion to Islam. Rather, God has conferred upon you that He has guided you to faith, if you are truthful.” And when the Truth likened the servants’ vision of Him to their seeing the sun, the sun acquired a greater rank with them, in particular.
