"Performing the Rawatib prayer after someone who is praying a Fard (obligatory) prayer is permissible according to the majority of scholars. This is the of the Shafi'is and Dawud al-Zahiri, one narration from Malik, and the madhhab of Al-Thawri and Abu Hanifa. However, it should not be believed that this is a Sunnah, or that the Rawatib prayer is not performed except in this manner."
