The Cure for Forgetfulness in Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I am often forgetful in prayer, so what is the cure for that? Should I increase the voluntary prayers?
Answer:
I am often forgetful in prayer. If I pray al-Fatihah, and I forget, or if I fall asleep, meaning I get drowsy, that does not harm. The important thing is that you pray. If drowsiness or forgetfulness overcomes you, forgetfulness is corrected by the prostration for forgetfulness, as is well known. Yes.
