Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a questioner says: If the imam makes a mistake in reciting al-Fatihah, is it obligatory to correct him?
Answer:
Yes, it is obligatory to correct him. This happened to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and they did not correct him. So when he finished the prayer, he said, “Where are you, O Abu?” Abu ibn Ka‘b (may Allah be pleased with him). Yes.
