Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : ... It is said that this is an exception to his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): Sahih Muslim 394c Why? Because he is unable to recite. If he were to recite al-Fatihah, he would contradict the imam. We have been commanded to follow the imam in his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): Sunan an-Nasa'i 921Sahih (Darussalam) to the end of the hadith. Just as an exception was made from a hadith like this, and we considered the prayer of one who did not recite al-Fatihah valid because he is excused; so too, the one who came and did not find space in the row to join it, and followed the imam in the row alone, his prayer is valid; because [Al-Baqarah 2:286].
This is the detailed explanation of this matter.

إنما جعل الإمام لِيُؤتمَّ به ، فإذا كبَّر فكبِّروا ، وإذا قرأ فأنصتوا ، وإذا ركع فاركعواAllah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity
لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَاThis is the detailed explanation of this matter.
