Question
I was a musaafir when I joined the Imaam in the last raka't of Zuhr Salaat. After the Imaam made Salaam, I stood up and performed one raka't and completed my Salaat, thinking that I am a musaafir and should perform only two raka'ts. Was my Salaat valid?
Answer
You were supposed to have performed another three raka'ts. When a musaafir follows an Imaam who is a muqeem (not a musaafir), he (the musaafir) has to also perform four raka'ts. You have to make qadha of four raka'ts.
