Question:
Among the questions that have come to the program is one asking about the recitation of al-Fatihah. If it is not possible to recite al-Fatihah, because some of the imams of the mosques do not give us the opportunity or time to recite it, is it waived for us?
Answer:
Recite al-Fatihah in the pauses of your imam if it is possible. If it is not possible, then the recitation of the imam suffices. The recitation of the imam suffices, and it counts for him and for those behind him. If it is possible for the ma'mum to recite it, then he recites it. Yes.
