Leaving voluntary prayers due to passing thoughts and intrusive whispers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
السوال: Sometimes during prayer, a thought comes to us, and we leave the regular voluntary prayer after the obligatory prayer. It is a simple thought and goes away quickly.
If you are afraid that if you pray the voluntary prayer your heart will be preoccupied,Know that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (There is no prayer in the presence of food, nor while one is struggling with the two urges) go and attend to your business, then pray at home. You have the time between the midday prayer and the call to the afternoon prayer,Meaning: The time for the regular voluntary prayer of the midday prayer extends until the call to the afternoon prayer.
