The questioner:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, some of the people praying do not complete the recitation of al-Fatihah or the tashahhud. What is the ruling on their prayer?
The Shaykh:
Does not complete.
The questioner:
The recitation of al-Fatihah and the tashahhud.
The Shaykh:
His prayer is not valid, because the recitation of al-Fatihah is a pillar of the prayer, unless he is behind the imam, in which case the imam’s recitation suffices for him and for those behind him. But if he is praying alone, he must recite al-Fatihah, because it is a pillar of the prayer.
