Responsibility of Leaders in Prayer

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) taught that if a leader leads the prayer correctly, both the leader and those being led will be rewarded, but if mistakes are made, only the leader will be held responsible.

If they conduct it properly, you and they will be rewarded; but if they make mistakes you will earn the reward and they will be held responsible (for the mistakes)". Al- Bukhari.
