Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, he says: A man prayed next to me, and I could not bear the intensity of his smell at all. The question is: Is it permissible for me to cut off my prayer?
The Shaykh:
If you cannot bear it, move back to the row behind you, or move back if possible. If that is not possible and you cannot endure it, and it disturbs your prayer, then cut it off. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, he says: If singing affects the heart.
The Shaykh:
Or if there is a row in front of you, whether in front of you or behind you, try to move back or move forward to the row.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
