The ruling on slight movement during prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Abu 'Abd al-Rahman, says: Regarding looking at the watch, we see in the mosques that some people look at their watches or take something from their shemagh and place it over their shoulder. Is the prayer invalidated by excessive movement, or not?
Answer:
There are three things required in prayer: khushu' (humility) and the absence of movement. Movement out of necessity is permissible, such as adjusting one's voice, fixing one's hair, or something that needs to be adjusted. Slight movement out of necessity is permissible.
