Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon our Master, the Messenger of Allah.
Among the conditions for the validity of following an Imam (Iqtida’) is that the Imam and the follower must be in the same location.

However, if the follower is with the Imam in the same mosque, the prayer is valid. And Allah the Exalted knows best.
