Does the prayer of one who recites al-Fatihah without moving his lips become invalid?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: A caller to Islam stood up after the prayer and said that the one who does not move his lips while reciting during the prayer has an invalid prayer. He reported that this ruling is from you, and that it is necessary to move the lips with al-Fatihah. Is this correct?

Answer:
Yes, this is correct. The one who does not move his lips is not reciting. Reciting in the heart is not sufficient. It is necessary to move the lips with the letters. Yes.
