Matters that aid in humility in prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
What is the ruling in the Shari'ah regarding one who is distracted from his prayer, no matter how hard he tries to make it pure without any thoughts?
Answer: He must strive, hold himself to account, and fear Allah in this matter. When he fears Allah, Allah will help him
And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way outوََمَنْ يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَلْ لَهُ مَخْرَجًا
[Al-Talaq:2]. So he must fear Allah, hold himself to account, and strive against his self, until he gathers his heart for the prayer, and until he is sincere to Allah in his prayer, and until he is humble in it before his Lord, and until he abandons harmful thoughts. This requires great effort, care, sincerity, and turning to Allah, asking Him for help, Blessed and Exalted is He, until Allah gathers his heart for his prayer. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
