The Ruling on the Imam's Voice Cutting Off During Prayer

Question
A person prayed the Friday prayer outside the mosque and could hear the imam's voice. When the imam said 'Allahu Akbar' and bowed, the sound was cut off. How does he know that he has caught the bowing with the imam?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: If he has performed the bowing with the imam or after him, his prayer is valid, and God knows best.
