Laughing during prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The third question of Fatwa No. ( 16368 )
Q 3: On one of the Fridays, during the prayer, an incident occurred with one of the worshippers that made me laugh while I was in prayer. Did this invalidate my prayer? If so, should I pray it as Zuhr with four rak'ahs?
A 3 : If the laughing reaches the level of loud laughter, it invalidates the prayer. However, if it is slight and does not go beyond a smile, it does not affect the validity of the prayer.
And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
