Answer:
If the person from the congregation makes the takbeerut al ihraam standing, then he goes into the rukoo? and he catches the imaam in rukoo?, then he has accomplished that rak?ah ? according to the hadeeth of Abu Bakrah (radi Allaahu anhu) that he reached the Prophet (sal Allaahu alaiyhi wa sallam) whilst he was in rukoo? ? so he (Abu Bakrah) went into rukoo? before he reached the row.
So the Prophet sal Allaahu alaiyhi wa sallam said to him:
May Allaah increase you in eagerness and do not repeat it (ie the rak?ah). - Bukhaari reports it and Abu Daawud made an addition to it:
And he bowed whilst not in the row then he moved to the row. - (Abu Daawud 1/157, Ahmad 5/39, Bukhaari 1/188 and others)
And due to what is reported by Abu Daawud from him sal Allaahu alaiyhi wa sallam:
Whoever catches the rukoo? has indeed caught the rak?ah. - (Abu Daawud 1/206)
And with Allaah is the tawfeeq. And may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.
