The Ruling on Praying in a Hurry and Its Conditions

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I move on to this message from one of our dear brothers, a Yemeni resident. He asks: What is the ruling on one who prays in a hurry? What do you advise him? And what are the conditions of the prayer?

Answer:
The haste that prevents tranquility invalidates the prayer, because tranquility is a pillar of the prayer. A man prayed before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), then he came and greeted him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned his greeting and said to him, "Pray, for you have not prayed." He did this several times until the man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to show him how to pray. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught him the prayer with its pillars and its obligatory acts, including tranquility, until he is tranquil, until he is tranquil while bowing, until he is tranquil while prostrating. For every pillar, he told him "until you are tranquil." This indicates that tranquility is a pillar of the prayer, and it is not valid without it. So the one who does not attain tranquility, his prayer is not valid. Yes.
