The first question of Fatwa number ( 18572 )
Q 1: What is the ruling on a prayer-worshipper intentionally occupying himself with amusing speech and the like while performing his prayer, to the point that some of them place a radio playing a Quran reciter in front of them? What do you advise? May Allah reward you with good.
A 1: It is not permissible to intentionally distract a prayer-worshipper from his prayer with speech or anything else. Even the one reciting the Qur'an does not raise his voice in recitation so as not to distract the one praying beside him. In the hadith from Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Abi Dawud 1332Sahih (Al-Albani) And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
