ANSWER:

It’s not permissible to avoid congregational prayer as this is what the mission is of satan, to make you abandon praying all together!

Say the fateha really quickly and practice it many times outside of prayer and you can take a few seconds extra when the imam is in ruku but must join him before he starts to rise up

QUESTION: I am trying to improve my speed but unfortunately I miss the fatiha in third rakah of every maghrib congregational prayer. is my prayer valid if I add an extra rakah every time or just avoid congregational prayer completely
