The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
The prayer of a person who follows the imam is invalidated if he performs one part of prayer before the imam. For example, his prayer is invalidated if he performs ruku (bowing down) before the imam…
However, his wudu is not invalidated. He must perform his prayer again since his prayer is invalidated.
