Forgetting the Fatiha and Reciting a Surah, Then Remembering
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a person forgets to recite the Fatiha and begins reciting a surah after it, then remembers and recites it, does this invalidate the prayer?
Answer:
No, the professor is silent. He sat in the position of the slaughterer and recited a surah, then remembered and recited it before bowing. He prostrates at that moment, because he forgot to leave a pillar; he forgot a pillar in its place. Yes.
