If both feet slip after getting caught in one’s clothing

Question

If, while leading the prayer, the imam’s foot gets caught in his clothing so that he is about to fall, and both his feet lose their footing, but he regains his balance — will this not cause some defect in the prayer?

Answer

Since this happened because of such an excuse, the prayer will not become fasid.
