The ruling on the ma'mum forgetting to recite al-Fatihah in the secret prayers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if the ma'mum forgets to recite al-Fatihah in the secret prayers and does not remember until after the imam has said the taslim, what is the ruling?
Answer:
The ruling, and praise be to Allah, is that the imam bears it; the imam's recitation suffices for the ma'mum, and it is not obligatory for the ma'mum to recite al-Fatihah because the imam's recitation is sufficient. This is among the virtues of the congregational prayer. This is from the excellences of the congregational prayer, because the imam bears the burden for the ma'mum in it; if they [the ma'mum] commit an error, their prayer is valid.
