The Imam Completing the Prayer After Remembering He Had Eaten Camel Meat

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I prayed the 'Asr prayer in congregation, and in the third rak'ah I remembered that I had eaten camel meat and had not performed wudu'. I completed the prayer with them, then went back to my house, performed wudu', and repeated the prayer alone. Is my action correct?

Answer:
No, your action is not correct because you were not in a state of wudu'. The correct view is that eating camel meat breaks the wudu'; it breaks the wudu'. So when you realized it, you should have delayed and told them, "Wait," then gone to perform wudu', come back, and completed the prayer with them, meaning you would have resumed the prayer with them. Or you would have left one person and told him, "Pray with them," so he would start the prayer with them anew if you wanted to delay. But your action is not correct. Yes.
