Does the ma'mum reading part of al-Fatihah before the imam reads it, and then completing it when the imam pauses, contradict the obligation of reciting it in order?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. You mentioned, may Allah preserve you, in the explanation of al-Zad, in the chapter on the description of prayer, that the ma'mum reads al-Fatihah when he finishes the opening supplication, if the imam has not started reading. If the imam starts reading, he stops. And if the imam pauses after al-Fatihah, the ma'mum completes his recitation of al-Fatihah and does not go back to the beginning. Does this contradict what the author mentioned, that one reads al-Fatihah in order and consecutively, or does he start it anew?

Answer:
It is in order, even if some of it is delayed relative to the rest. It is in order, but consecutive. This is an excuse if the consecutiveness did not occur; he is excused. This is one of the excuses. So, consecutiveness is required when possible. Consecutiveness when possible. Yes.
