When reading behind the Imam, are we supposed to read Sura Fatiha whilst the Imam is reciting it too ? - for example, in both loud and silent prayers ?

I can't seem to concentrate when it's being read aloud and at the same time, we're supposed to be reading it too.

Is this correct ? - I thought if we're in congregation, there's no need to read the Sura ?

JZK.

for hanafi - Imam Salah is yours. Not required to recite when you are behind the Imam.
