Salaat The Majlis Vol 24 No 01, p.3

I live in a place where the majority of Muslims are Shaafis.

Question

I live in a place where the majority of Muslims are Shaafis. They perform Asr when it is still Zuhr for Hanafis. I join them for Asr. Is my Asr valid?

Answer

How can your Asr be valid when you believe and know that it is still Zuhr time for you?

Your Asr Salaat has to be performed during Hanafi time. The Salaat you perform with the Shaafi' jamaat during Shaafi' time is Nafl. You have to still perform your Asr in the valid Hanafi time.
