Pursuing a snake during prayer and excessive movement
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Some snakes are not easily killed; rather, one must pursue and chase them until they are killed. Does this excessive movement break the prayer?
Answer:
No, if he needs to do so to kill it, it does not break his prayer. Yes, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and did not specify or limit it; this is general. So if killing them requires pursuing and chasing them, there is no harm in that. Yes.
