Question:
Does one davening the amidah word for word with the sliach tzibbur count towards the 10 needed to answer chazaras hashas?
Thanks
Answer:
He does count into the minyan.
Sources:
Eishai Yisroel 1-4 from R’ S. Z. Auerbach zt”l. His reason is because he is part of the chazoras hashatz no less than the rest that are only listening to it and shomaya k’onah.
