Question: isha namaz
salaams, sometimes when i goto mosque for isha namaz the tarawih is being prayed, should i pray my isha namaz seperatly first or can i join the tarawih with the intention of isha namaz and when the imam says assalumualaykum i get up and pray the other 2 rakats, ive heard from DR ZAKIR that i can join the imam then finish of the 2 rakats, how true is this?

Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah's guidance)



One should perform the 'Isha Salah individually and join in the Taraweeh Salah and complete the missed Rakats of Taraweeh after the Witr Salah.

And Only Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.
