The ma'mum remembering impurity in the imam's clothes during the prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If the ma'mum remembers during the prayer that there is impurity in the imam's clothes that the imam came into contact with before the prayer, what is required of the ma'mum to do?

Answer:
He is required to alert the imam if he knows that there is impurity in his clothes and he has not washed it. But how does he know that he did not wash it? It is possible that he washed it. It is possible that the imam washed it and he does not know. So the default is that the prayer is valid, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
