The ruling on the imam delegating the prayer if he becomes ritually impure while sitting

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if the imam becomes ritually impure while sitting, does he wait until he stands up and then delegate the prayer, or does he proceed immediately with the delegation? And how is that done? Yes.

Answer:
If he becomes ritually impure before delegating, then according to the school of thought, the prayer is invalid. The delegation is before he... If he senses that his ablution is about to be broken, he delegates. But if his ablution is broken before the delegation, then I said his prayer is invalid, so there is no delegation.
