The leadership of one afflicted with a nervous disorder characterized by excessive movement

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: A man afflicted with a nervous disorder, may Allah heal him, stood up and led us in prayer. He moves a lot because of this illness. Does the prayer behind him become invalid because of his excessive movement?

Answer:
The prayer is valid, but do not appoint him as imam after this. Do not appoint him. Yes.
