The ruling on praying in the presence of food

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
As indicated by the hadith: "There is no prayer in the presence of food that one craves," O Shaykh?

Answer:
It indicates that it is obligatory to enter the prayer with a mind free from worldly matters and the attachments of the soul, so that one stands before his Lord, turning to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), with nothing to distract him, whether food, drink, or otherwise, or the urge to relieve oneself of urine or feces. Yes.
