Q 2: What is the ruling if the Imam dies after reciting Allah's saying, The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) or if he breaks his Wudu' (ablution) after reciting, The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) in the second Rak`ah (unit of prayer)? Is it permissible for the Ma'mum (a person being led by an Imam in Prayer) to lead people in this Salah and repeat the first Rak`ah? We heard the Imam saying, The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) can the person who succeeds him complete the recitation by saying, You (Alone) we worship ?

A: if the Imam dies or breaks his Wudu' during Salah, one of the followers can take his place and complete the Salah. He has to begin reciting Surah Al-Fatihah from the beginning. He can also begin reciting the Qur'an from the place where the first Imam stopped if he has recited what the first Imam recited. This is according to the soundest opinion of scholars in this regard.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
