Leaving the congregation because the imam rushes through the prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If the imam of the mosque rushes so much that I am unable to perform the obligatory acts with him, is this an excuse for me to leave the congregation?

Answer:
Do not leave the congregation; go to another mosque, my brother. Go with an imam who is proficient in prayer, if that is possible. Yes, the first thing, the first thing, is to advise him. You say to him, "Slow down in prayer, my brother." Be gentle with him in this. If he accepts, fine; otherwise, seek out another mosque. Yes.
