1103 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُ سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنِ اَلْقِرَاءَةِ خَلْفَ اَلْإِمَامِ فَقَالَ «لاَ إِنَّ اَلْإِمَامَ ضَامِنٌ لِلْقِرَاءَةِ وَ لَيْسَ يَضْمَنُ اَلْإِمَامُ صَلاَةَ اَلَّذِينَ هُمْ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ إِنَّمَا يَضْمَنُ اَلْقِرَاءَةَ.
Hadith.1103 - Al-Hussain ibn Kathir narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq 
that a man asked him about reciting (Qur'an) behind the Imam (during prayer).
Imam said: "No, the Imam is responsible for the recitation, but the Imam does not take responsibility for the prayers of those behind him; he is only responsible for the recitation."
