Entering Mosque During Adhan

Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Shaykh Amjad Rasheed

If someone enters the mosque while the call to prayer is being given, then should he remain standing and repeat the words of the call to prayer and then pray the rak‘as of greeting the mosque after the call to prayer is completed? Or should he pray the rak‘as of greeting the mosque first and then repeat whatever words of the call to prayer that he is able to (if anything of it remains) after his salams [h: upon completing his prayer]? Or is there even any preference?

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم الحمد لله رب العالمين و صلى الله على سيدنا محمد و على آله و صحبه و سلم أما بعد

It is best for him to remain standing and repeat the call to prayer and then pray the rak‘as of greeting the mosque.

السؤال : إذا دخل أحدٌ المسجدَ والأذان ينادى فهل ينتظر واقفا ويردد كلمات الأذان ثم يصلي تحية المسجد بعد إتمام الأذان أم هل يصلي تحية المسجد أولا ثم يردد ما استطاع من الأذان إن بقي منه شيء بعد السلام ؟ أم هل هناك أولوية أصلا ؟ ال جواب :الأولى أن يبقى واقفاً فيجيب المؤذن ، ثم يصلي تحيةَ المسجد .
