What is the ruling on a person leading the prayer who does not settle in his prayer and makes mistakes in the recitation?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. He also says about that imam that he does not settle in the prayer and hurries through it, so you do not feel like you are praying. Likewise, the recitation is so fast that it is not understood. We have advised him many times, but he does not listen. We ask you to guide us to the good and to make du'a for that imam so that he may turn to the truth. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
We ask Allah to guide us and to guide this imam and all Muslims to accept the truth and act upon it, and to repent to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). However, if this imam reaches the point of being negligent in the prayer, not settling in it, and making mistakes in the recitation, then it is obligatory for you, after advising him, to go to the authority responsible for the mosques to have him replaced by someone else.
And do not continue praying behind him after advising him and his persistence in neglecting the prayer, because settling (tuma'ninah) is a pillar of the prayer. Settling is a pillar of the prayer; the prayer is not valid without settling. For the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he saw a man praying without settling in his prayer, ordered him to repeat the prayer. Then the man came and greeted the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) after repeating it, and he said to him, "Pray, for you have not prayed." He repeated this three times. Every time he came and greeted the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he said to him how to pray, and every time he said, "until you settle, until you settle in bowing, until you settle in prostration, until you settle in sitting," then he said, "then do that in all your prayer." The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered him to repeat the prayer because he was not settling in it.
This indicates that the one who prays without settling has an invalid prayer, and he must repeat it. Likewise, the recitation: if he recites al-Fatihah with mistakes in it, or by dropping some of its letters or its grammatical diacritics, then his recitation of al-Fatihah is not valid, and reciting al-Fatihah is a pillar of the prayer. So whoever makes a mistake in reciting al-Fatihah, his prayer is not valid unless he is unable to do otherwise. So such an imam is not suitable to continue as imam; he does not settle in the prayer and does not recite a valid recitation. It is obligatory for you to go to the authority responsible for the mosques to have him replaced by a righteous imam.
Yes. May Allah reward you with good and do you well. In addition to this, as mentioned in the previous questions, Shaykh Salih is concerned with mawlid celebrations, fasting the middle of Sha'ban, and the like. All of these are defects. Allah is the One to be sought for help. They make him unsuitable for leading the prayer. Yes. May Allah reward you with good and do you well.
