The answer

The prayer is valid if the Imam performs what is sufficient in it. Reciting Al-Fatiha is recommended, not obligatory. Any form of salutation upon the Prophet is sufficient. Supplication is a pillar, and any utterance that qualifies as a supplication is sufficient. Re-performing the prayer is not legislated for one who has already performed it. However, if one re-performs it believing the first one was invalid, there is no sin upon him.
