Is the imam's sutrah a sutrah for the ma'mum after the imam has said the taslim?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
After the imam has said the taslim: does the imam's sutrah remain a sutrah for the ma'mum (the masbuq)?

Answer:
No, if a sutrah is available to him; otherwise, he completes the prayer even without a sutrah, and praise be to Allah. If there is a sutrah around him, he should place it in front of him, and that is good, if he fears that someone might pass by. Because in al-Masjid al-Haram, in front of the Ka'bah, one does not need a sutrah. This applies to both men and women.
Q: Only in Makkah?
A: Yes, if there is a crowd and he cannot have a sutrah; then he is excused from it, whether he is in al-Madinah or elsewhere:
So fear Allah as much as you are ableفَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ
[Surat al-Taghabun: 16].
Q: In any place?
A: In any place.
