Does every pillar of the prayer drop with the presence of the imam?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Does every pillar of the prayer drop with the presence of the imam?

Answer:
Whatever evidence indicates that it drops, drops; as for what no evidence indicates, it does not drop. Evidence indicates that Surat al-Fatihah drops for the ma'mum, even though it is a pillar of the prayer. But this pillar drops for the ma'mum because the imam performed it. We do not say the pillar drops because the imam performed it; rather, it suffices for the ma'mum. Yes.
