Question:
He says: What is the ruling on praying behind a mosque imam who makes mistakes in al-Fatihah?
Answer:
A mosque imam who masters al-Fatihah; how can he be a mosque imam? This is not acceptable; one cannot be a mosque imam unless he masters al-Fatihah, because it is a pillar of the prayer. Learning it is easy, praise be to Allah, so no one is appointed in the mosque unless he masters al-Fatihah and masters his recitation, at least mastering his recitation in the prayer. Yes.
