1- When a person prays behind an imam, four scenarios may apply: 1- doing a movement before the imam, 2- delaying in following the imam, 3- doing an action simultaneously with the imam, and 4- doing a movement immediately after the imam. 2- Following the imam is the Sunnah and what it means is that a person starts to do the actions of prayer immediately after the imam starts them, but without doing them at the same time.162,745Can we testify that a man is a believer if he regularly attends prayers in the mosque?
