If a person who is
praying behind the imaam needs desperately to urinate or pass wind, and he
is in the final Tashahhud, will his prayer still be valid if he says
salaam before the imaam, after doing all the necessary parts or
“pillars” of the prayer?

Question: 7420
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
We put this question to Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-‘Uthaymeen, may Allaah preserve him, who replied as follows:
Yes, his prayer will still be valid, because he has an excuse. And Allaah knows best.
