Is it permissible for the ma'mum (one praying behind the imam) to recite al-Fatihah verse by verse behind the imam if he pauses at the beginning of each verse?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pause at the beginning of every verse when reciting al-Fatihah. So, am I allowed to recite the verse the imam has just recited during each pause?

Answer:
If the silence is sufficient for your recitation, then recite. Yes.
