What is the ruling on interrupting one's recitation of Surat al-Fatiha to say "Amin" to the imam's recitation for the worshipper in a silent prayer?

In a silent prayer, the worshiper says "Amin" to his own recitation as a recommended act. If he hears the Imam's "Amin" in a silent prayer, some scholars say he should say "Amin" with him, while others say he should not. Interrupting Al-Fatiha with "Amin" does not disrupt its order or affect the validity of its recitation.
