Wudhu breaking during Salaah
Question
Once I was Imam of Esha prayer, my wudhu broke after the second rakat. I did not know what to do, so I completed the namaz. Now what do I do? There were 11 people behind me.
Answer
The namaaz will have to be repeated. You should inform all those who performed Salaah behind you to repeat their Salaah.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
Q: I'm unable to inform those people because I don't remember who were behind me. It's almost two years back. Please guide me.
A: Try to the best of your ability to remember who followed you in the Salaah and inform them.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
