Question
If a person who is praying behind the imaam needs desperately to urinate or pass wind, and he is in the final Tashahhud, will his prayer still be valid if he says salaam before the imaam, after doing all the necessary parts or “pillars” of the prayer?
Answer
Praise be to Allah.We put this question to Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih
al-‘Uthaymeen, may Allaah preserve him, who replied as follows:
Yes, his prayer will still be valid, because he has an
excuse. And Allaah knows best.
