Question

Should someone who recites Shema before prayer, because they pray in a late minyan and want to recite before the time passes, put on Tefillin to avoid being like a false witness? (Or can one rely on the idea that this rule applies only to those who do not intend to put on Tefillin, and not to those who plan to put them on later?)

Answer

If there is time to put on Tefillin, one should put on Tefillin first.
