Hey alois if it goes out of the table from the side and the opponent hits it inside the back line; in front of the back line and outside the side line.

Hi Abdul,
If the ball has passed over the table and then is on the side of the table it is out of play. Therefore even if you hit the ball before it bounces it is your point as the ball is already out. This is true even if it hasn't passed behind the extension of the end line.
