Q: Is it correct that the follower in the loud prayers does not recite al-Fatihah with his imam and does not say "Ameen" after the imam finishes al-Fatihah, according to the Hanafi school of jurisprudence? If that is the case, what must he do?
A: The correct opinion among the scholars is that the follower recites behind the imam and says "Ameen" in the loud prayers when the imam says "and not the astray." However, in the loud prayers, he limits himself to al-Fatihah and then listens to his imam. As for the silent prayers, he recites al-Fatihah and whatever is easy for him with it, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Jami` at-Tirmidhi 247Sahih (Darussalam) And his saying (peace and blessings be upon him) addressing his Companions: They said: Yes. He said: Sunan Abi Dawud 823Da'if (Al-Albani) It was narrated by Imam Ahmad, Abu Dawud, al-Tirmidhi, and Ibn Hibban with a valid chain of narration. And his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): Sunan Abi Dawud 936Sahih (Al-Albani). And success is from Allah.

There is no Salat for the one who does not recite Fatihatil-Kitab.
لا صلاة لمن لم يقرأ بفاتحة الكتابPerhaps you are reciting behind the imam?
لعلكم تقرءون خلف الإمام؟Do not do so except when it is Fatihat al-Kitab, for he who does not recite it is not credited with having prayed.
لا تفعلوا إلا بفاتحة الكتاب فإنه لا صلاة لمن لم يقرأ بهاWhen the Imam says Amin, say Amin, for if anyone’s utterance of Amin synchronnises with that of the angles, he will be forgiven his past sins.
إذا قال الإمام ولا الضالين فقولوا: آمين فإنه من وافق تأمينه تأمين الملائكة غفر له ما تقدم من ذنبه
