A Muslim should pray with the larger congregation. If the first congregation is the larger one, he should pray with them and then perform the pre-prayer supererogatory (nafila) prayer. If the second or third congregation is the larger one, he should first pray the pre-prayer supererogatory (nafila) prayer and then pray with the larger congregation.
