Masbuq ni mfuasi anayejiunga na jamaa wakati ambapo hakuna muda wa kusoma Al-Fatiha kabla ya Imamu kuinama kwa Ruku'.

Masbooq is a follower who joins the congregation at a moment that there is no time to recite Faatihah before the Imaam bows down for Ruku’.

Muwaafiq ni mfuasi anayejiunga na jamaa wakati ambapo anapata nafasi ya kusoma Al-Faatihah kabla imamu hajainama kwa ajili ya Ruku'.

Muwaafiq is a follower who joins the congregation at a moment that he gets a chance to recite Faatihah before the Imaam bows down for Ruku’.

1. Ikiwa Masbuuq atamkuta Imamu katika hali ya Ruku', atajiunga naye katika Ruku' bila kusoma Al-Faatihah. Akiweza kumpata Imamu kwa urahisi katika Ruku', itachukuliwa kuwa amepata rakaa hii.

1. If Masboo finds the Imaam in the position of Ruku’, he will join him in the Ruku’ without reading Al-Faatihah. If he gets the Imaam easily in Ruku’ then it will be considered that he has got this Rak’h.

2. Akimkuta Imamu yuko katika hali ya kusimama, lakini Imamu akainama kwa ajili ya Rukuu kabla masbuuq hajamaliza Al-Fatihah, basi naye ainame kwa Rukuu pamoja na Imamu, ikiwa hakuwa amejishughulisha na kusoma du'aa ya kufungulia swala au Ta'awwudh.

2. When he gets the Imaam in standing position, but the Imaam bows down for Ruku’ before the Masbooq completes Al-Fatihah then he should also bow down for Ruku’ with Imaam, if he was not busy in reading opening Du’aa or Ta’awwz.

Si lazima kwake kusoma sehemu iliyobaki ya Al-Fatiha.

It is not necessary for him to recite the rest of Faatihah.

3. Akimkuta Imamu katika hali ya kusimama na akaanza kusoma dua ya mwanzo au Ta'awwudh, na kabla hajamaliza kusoma Al-Faatihah, Imamu akainama kwa Ruku', basi itamlazimu asubiri kwa muda wote aliokuwa akishughulika na dua au Ta'awwudh. Baada ya hapo, ikiwa atamkuta Imamu katika hali ya Ruku', itahesabiwa kuwa amepata rakaa hiyo. Lakini ikiwa Imamu atainuka kutoka Ruku' kabla ya Masbuuq kuinama, itahesabiwa kuwa amekosa rakaa hiyo. Ikiwa Imamu atasujudu kabla Masbuuq hajamaliza Al-Faatihah, Swalah yake itakuwa batili, endapo hakuwa amekusudia kujitenga na Jamaa'a.

3. If he gets the Imaam in standing position and begins reading the opening Du’aa or Ta’awwuz, and before he completes reciting Faatihah, the Imaam bows down for Ruku’ then he has to stay behind for as long as he was busy with the Du’aa or Ta’awwuz. Thereafter, if he meets the Imaam in the position of Ruku’ then it will be considered that he has got that Rakaat. But if the Imaam stands up from Ruku’ before the Masbooq bows down then it will be considered that he has missed that Rak’h. If the Imaam performs Sajdaah before the Masbooq completes Faatihah, his Salaah will be invalid, if he has not intended separation from the Jamaat.

1. Muwaafiq lazima akamilishe Al-Faatihah. Ikiwa Imamu atakwenda Ruku' kabla ya Muwaafiq kukamilisha Al-Faatihah, basi aendelee kubaki nyuma ili aikamilishe.

1. Muwaafiq must complete Faatihah. If the Imaam goes to Ruku’ before the Muwaafiq completes Faatihah, he should stay behind in order to complete it.

2. Akichelewa kwa kusoma Al-Faatihah, anaruhusiwa kuchelewa kumfuata Imamu kwa kiasi cha Arkaan tatu kwa sababu yoyote kati ya zifuatazo:

2. When he stays behind for reciting Faatihah, he is permitted to make delay in following Imaam to the extent of three Arkaan due to any of the following reasons:

a) Wakati Muwaafiq ni mtu aliyezoea kusoma polepole si kwa sababu ya wasiwasi, wakati Imamu anasoma kwa kasi ya kawaida.

a) When Muwaafiq is habitual of reading slow not because of Wawasah while the Imaam reads in normal speed.

b) Akisahau kusoma Suratul-Faatihah na akaikumbuka kabla ya kufanya Ruku' pamoja na Imamu. Lakini akiikumbuka baada ya kufanya Ruku', hatairudia kisomo hicho katika rakaa hiyo. Ataendelea kumfuata Imamu, na baada ya kutoa Salaam, ataswali rakaa moja zaidi.

b) When he forgets reciting Faatihah and remembers it before making Ruku’ with the Imaam. But if he remembers it after performing Ruku’, he will not perform it at the same. He will continue following the Imaam and after making Salaam, he will perform one Rakaat more.

c) Anapojishughulisha na dua ya kufungulia (du'aa al-iftitah) au ta'awudh, akidhani kwamba ataweza kusoma Suratul Fatihah kabla imamu hajaenda kwenye Ruku', lakini hawezi kufanya hivyo. Ikiwa atashindwa kusoma Fatihah na asimpate imamu katika hali ya Ruku', basi rakaa hiyo imepotea, na ataitekeleza baada ya imamu kutoa salamu.

c) When he engages himself with the opening Du’aa or Ta’wwuz thinking that he will recite Suratul Faatihah before the Imaam goes to Ruku’ but he can not. If he fails to recite Faatihah and does not get the Imaam in the position of Ruku’ then that Rak’h is missed and he will perform it after the Imaam makes Salaam.
