If the imam holds that the prostration for forgetfulness is obligatory, but the one praying behind him does not
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : As for the case where the imam holds that the prostration for forgetfulness is obligatory but does not perform it, and we remind him of it, but he is a stubborn imam. If we had not reminded him, he would have prostrated, but because we reminded him, he became stubborn and did not prostrate, and we know that he holds that the prostration is obligatory. The jurists (may Allah have mercy on them) said that in this case, the one praying behind him should prostrate if he loses hope of his imam prostrating, because his prayer is linked to the imam's prayer, and the imam did what necessitates the prostration and left it without any interpretation, so it is obligatory for the one praying behind him to make up this deficiency and prostrate.
