Reciting after al-Fatihah in the third or fourth rak'ah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If I finish reciting al-Fatihah in the third or fourth rak'ah, and the imam has not yet bowed, should I remain silent or recite whatever I can of the Qur'an?

Answer:
Recite whatever you can of the Qur'an and do not remain silent, but do not repeat al-Fatihah, because it is a pillar, and a pillar is not repeated.
