Whispers during prayer and their effect

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I say that I suffer from many whispers during prayer, and I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan throughout the entire prayer. Does this affect my faith, given that I maintain the prayers and recitation of the Qur'an?

Answer:
This does not harm the prayer. This is a whisper from Shaytan. You must repel it and not continue with it. Reject it, stay away from it, and seek refuge from Shaytan, and it will go away, if Allah wills. But your prayer is valid. Yes.
