Following a Person Who Offers Defective Prayer Due to an Excuse
Issue No. 1271- If the imam leads his prayer with tayammum, or jabīrah wuḍū, one can follow him. However, if because of some valid excuse, he has no alternative but to perform the prayer in najis clothes, one should not follow him, as a recommended precaution. However, one who suffers from a disease, owing to which he cannot control his urine or faeces and also mustaḥāḍah women and generally speaking, anyone who offers defective prayer on account of an excuse cannot, as an obligatory precaution, lead the prayer for others.
