Is a Masjid (mosque) whose Imam

Q: I have been suffering from a problem for 4 years, since I was involved in a car accident that paralyzed my left arm and caused a weakness in my left side. I have a BA in the Arabic language, have memorized many parts of the Qur’an, and recite Al-Fatihah and as much as I can from the Qur’an. Will my leading of people in Salah (Prayer) be on the same level as that of a healthy man? (Part No. 6; Page No. 295

A: If your paralysis prevents you from performing the standing, the Ruku‘ (bowing), the Sujud (prostration) on the seven parts of body, the sitting, or any of the other pillars or conditions of the Salah, it will not be correct for anyone to perform Salah behind you, except for someone like you. It is obligatory on you not to offer to be an Imam (one who leads others in congregational Prayer), as you can not perform the pillars and conditions of Salah. If, however, your paralysis does not prevent you from what has been mentioned, a Salah performed behind you will be correct.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
