Question

Answer
According to the Hanafi Madhab, it is compulsory for the Imaam and for a person who is performing Salaat by himself to recite Surah al-Faatiha. A person behind the Imaam should not recite Surah al-Faatiha in the standing posture. This is the meaning of the different Ahaadith pertaining to Surah al-Faatiha.
If you follow the Hanafi Madhab, you should adhere to the Hanafi Madhab.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
