Does the prayer become invalid by gesturing, moving, or speaking?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Yes. So I said, does the prayer mean this, or that? No.
The Shaykh : There is no harm in moving.
The questioner : Or they said, yes, Shaykh, if you recite a verse from the Qur'an, they said yes.
The Shaykh : And we say.
The questioner : For example, does the verse come in the Qur'an? They said yes, a verse in the Qur'an? They said yes, so you mean, yes, to the one who is speaking to you?
The Shaykh : You mean the recitation invalidated your prayer, meaning if someone speaks to you and you are at the point of His saying, "Am I not your Lord?" Yes,[Al-A'raf 7:44], when you reached the word "they said," someone told you, "So-and-so is present?" You said yes, do you want to answer him?
The questioner : Or otherwise, this recitation, Shaykh, I am reciting, for example, the attributes, then I moved to this surah when I wanted to.
The Shaykh : In any case, as long as you intended to address someone, this invalidates the prayer, but if you addressed the recitation, this does not invalidate the prayer.

فَهَلْ وَجَدتُّم مَّا وَعَدَ رَبُّكُمْ حَقًّا قَالُواThe questioner : Or otherwise, this recitation, Shaykh, I am reciting, for example, the attributes, then I moved to this surah when I wanted to.
