Tomb of Tana Hakadosh Rabbi Nachum Ish Gamzu
Rabbi Nachum Ish Gamzu was one of the first Tannaim (sages of the Mishnah era) and teacher of Rabbi Akiva
If someone is in the middle of prayer and the congregation reaches Kaddish and Kedushá, is it enough to hear the congregation, even without hearing the chazan directly?
It is not sufficient to hear only the congregation; one must hear specifically from a chazan who intends to fulfill the Amidah for ten (yachid). That is, one should hear the regular chazan who intends to enable the entire congregation to fulfill Kedushá through his voice. Hearing Kaddish and Kedushá from a chazan praying randomly, without intention to lead others, is not beneficial. Therefore, one should not interrupt their own prayer.
PLEASE NOTE*
Attention: You should not learn from one case to another, each case must be analyzed individually. Generally speaking, it's always best to have contact with a Rabbi in person, not just virtual contact. Note that where there is a local Rabbi("Mara Deatra"), one should ask him. The answers are under the responsibility of the rabbi who responded, and not under the responsibility of the website and/or the Head of the Institution.
