Question:
How does a person drive away Satan's whispers while in prayer?
Answer:
This is achieved through several means, including remembering the greatness of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), who is standing before him, and listening attentively to the words of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) when he is reciting them or when the imam is asking him to, by listening to His saying:[Al-A'raf 7:204] and seeking refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan after the opening invocation and before reciting Surat al-Fatihah. This is what causes the Shaytan to be driven away from him. Likewise, one should not seek forgiveness in response to the whispers of doubt; rather, a person should cut them off, focus on his prayer, and not give in to the whispers. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
