AskImamDarul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam)
If the Jamaat has started, and I am completing my Sunnahs, can I say Salaam early? If so, at what point (pls clarify this point for each of the 4 rakaats or 2 rakaats of Sunnah that we offer)?
Question
i.e., if I?m in the 1st Rakaat, when do I stop, and so on?
Answer
If a person has already commenced with the Sunnat-e-Muakkadah of Dhuhr and the Jamaat commences, then he should make Salaam after two Rakaats and join the Jamaat. And if he already commenced with the third Rakaat, then it is necessary to complete the full four Rakaats. (Bahishti Zewar vol.2 pg.170)

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
