Hadith.1103 - Al-Hussain ibn Kathir narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) that
a man asked him about reciting (Qur'an) behind the Imam (during prayer).
Imam (as) said: "No, the Imam is responsible for the recitation, but the Imam does not take responsibility for the prayers of those behind him; he is only responsible for the recitation."
1103 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُ
سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنِ اَلْقِرَاءَةِ خَلْفَ اَلْإِمَامِ فَقَالَ «لاَ إِنَّ اَلْإِمَامَ ضَامِنٌ لِلْقِرَاءَةِ وَ لَيْسَ يَضْمَنُ اَلْإِمَامُ صَلاَةَ اَلَّذِينَ هُمْ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ إِنَّمَا يَضْمَنُ اَلْقِرَاءَةَ.
