Praying Behind a Traveling Imam

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

What to do if the one leading the prayer is travelling, and you are resident. The ‎Imam does 2rakatand you have to do 4. What do you recite?

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Walaikum assalam,

According to the more correct opinion, the resident follower praying behind an imam who is a traveller does not recite anything at all in the third and fourth rakats. Not the Fatiha, or anything else. [Maraqi, Radd al-Muhtar]

Wassalam,
Faraz Rabbani.
