The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible to speak in prayer when necessary to warn of a danger, or to alert the imam in a private prayer if he becomes confused and leaves something out?
The Shaykh:
A warning about a danger that breaks the prayer. If one sees a person in a danger that breaks the prayer, he should save him and not continue the prayer. As for the second question,
The questioner:
He says: Alerting the imam in a private prayer if he becomes confused and leaves out an obligatory act or a pillar?
The Shaykh:
Say "Subhan Allah" for him.Sunan an-Nasa'i 1183Sahih (Darussalam) Let the men say "Subhan Allah" and the women clap, so he should alert him with the tasbih. If he is stuck on a verse, he should open it for him and recite the verse to open it for him. If the imam does not know and brings a verse, alert him; there is no harm in that. For example, if he prostrates and the imam did not prostrate, he says "And prostrate and draw near" to alert him to the prostration that he left out. And if he did not bow, he says [Al-Baqarah 2:43] he brings a verse,

If you notice something when you are praying
إذا نابكم شيء في صلاتكمand bow with those who bow [in worship and obedience].
وَارْكَعُوا مَعَ الرَّاكِعِينَ
