The ruling on looking at the place of prostration in prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This person asks: What is the ruling on looking at the place of prostration in prayer?
Answer:
Looking at the place of prostration in prayer is what is required. The one praying should look at his place of prostration, because that is safer for his heart. He should not look at what is in front of him, letting his gaze wander, for that distracts him from the prayer. Rather, he should limit his gaze to his place of prostration; that is the best.
