The Ruling on Closing the Eyes in Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person does not feel humility, O Shaykh, and closes his eyes, does that suffice for the humility in prayer?

Answer:
Closing the eyes in prayer is disliked, because this is the practice of the Zoroastrians when they worship the fire. Yes.
