The Ruling on a Ma'mum Changing His Intention to That of the Imam

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah love you. Is it permissible for the ma'mum to change his intention to that of the imam and lead the people, like the people of al-Masruqin in their prayer?

Answer:
No, the imam intends it from the beginning of the prayer, and he does not intend it during the prayer unless the imam appoints him as a substitute. If the imam appoints him as a substitute because something happened to him, there is no harm. Yes.
