The Imam Praying Without Ritual Purity and the Congregation Repeating the Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: If the imam prays and it becomes clear after the prayer that he was not in a state of ritual purity, do the people praying behind him repeat the prayer?

Answer:
If he did not realize he was not in a state of ritual purity until after he had completed the prayer, their prayer is valid. He performs the ablution and repeats the prayer. Yes.
