The Ruling on the Follower’s Forgetfulness Behind His Imam
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
You say: If I pray with the congregation and make a mistake that requires me to perform the prostration for forgetfulness, what is the ruling?
Answer:
If you pray with the congregation from the beginning of the prayer, and you forget, for example, Subhan Rabbi al-A’la, or you forget Subhan Rabbi al-Azim in the bowing, or Rabbighfir li between the two prostrations, then the prostration for forgetfulness is not required of you; the imam bears it—praise be to Allah. Or if you forget al-Fatihah, the imam bears it—praise be to Allah. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
