Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 864/725/SN=8/1439)

No, if you have even least chance to offer salah standing then it is mandatory to offer salah by standing in train and flight as qiyam will not drop.

Note: The answer is correct, but if you offer salah in the bus or flight sitting due to some reason then you will have to offer the salah again.

Q. One day I joined Imam in third raka't of Zuhr prayer, Imam said salam and I stood up for remaining raka'ts. In the mean time muqtadi's said that namaz is nullified due to wrong number of raka't were offered. So, imam stood up again for prayer and all the muqtadis stoop up to follow him. Now, my question is, is it right for me to break the niyat and join the imam? Should we recite "sami Allah Huliman Hamida" and "RAbbana Lakal hamd" both behind the imam or not? Can we recite "Sure Fatiha" behind imam in our heart not by toungue? 1540 views
