Question:
He says: I suffer from stomach problems, and I fear that these matters invalidate my prayer, knowing that Satan whispers this to me.
Answer:
Your prayer is never invalidated, if Allah wills, unless you are certain, certain, that your ablution has been invalidated. If you are certain that your ablution has been invalidated, then you renew your ablution and pray again. As for mere doubt and obsessive thoughts, you should never pay attention to them; your prayer is valid. Yes.
