Musaafir performing salaah behind an imaam who is not a musaafir

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: How can I do ishaa prayer if I am out of my city? After two rakats, should I do salam or should I wait until others complete their Prayer?

Bismillaah

A: If you are a musaafir and you perform esha salaah alone, then you will only perform two rakaats. However, if you perform salaah in jamaat behind an imaam who is not a musaafir, then you will perform full salaah.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
