The ruling on the ma'mum reciting al-Fatihah in prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks: What is the ruling on the imam standing still in prayer after he has recited al-Fatihah, until the ma'mum recites al-Fatihah? And if the imam does not stand for that pause, what is the right of the ma'mum? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
The ma'mum recites al-Fatihah if he is able to do so, and if he is not able to do so, then the imam's recitation is sufficient. Yes.
