Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if the imam interrupts his prayer for a valid legal excuse while he is reciting al-Fatihah in a prayer where the recitation is audible, does the one who takes his place complete the recitation or start it from the beginning?
Answer:
He completes it. If a deputy is appointed, he completes al-Fatihah because he builds upon his imam’s prayer, so he builds upon what was recited of al-Fatihah. Yes.
