Listen, tell me of a man's prayer that has become—
Tell me of a man's prayer that has become
with the seas of Basit and Wajiz beside it—
Like a vast ocean, yet also brief,

وإن كان مأموما فليس تجوز
valid when he prays as an imam or alone;
It counts whether he prays behind an imam or alone,
but if he follows an imam, it is not valid.
But not if he prays behind a congregation.
