Crying in prayer: Does it have an effect?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The fifth question of Fatwa No. ( 18056 )
Q 5: Does humility and occasional crying when reciting the Qur'an in prayer, whether by the imam or the ma'mum, have an effect?
A 5 : Crying and humility when reciting the Qur'an in prayer do not affect the validity of the prayer. The one praying should strive not to disturb others if he is in congregational prayer or if there are people praying or reciting around him; for it is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that
In some of his prayers, his chest would make a sound like the sound of a cauldron due to cryingكان في بعض صلواته لصدره أزيز كأزيز المرجل من البكاء
, and it is established from al-Siddiq and 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that they cried in prayer. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
