Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Is it permissible to expel wind during prayer?
Answer:
Yes, he should expel it if it is mild. As for if it is severe, he should break his prayer. If it is mild, he can expel it without hardship, and he should maintain his prayer, and there is no harm in this, just as with urine and feces: if it is mild, he completes his prayer. But if it distracts him in his prayer, he should break it and expel the wind, urine, and feces so that he prays with a present heart. This is based on his saying (peace and blessings be upon him):Sahih Muslim 560a Likewise, severe wind that harms him, he should break his prayer. Yes.

No prayer can be (rightly said) when the food is there (before the worshipper), or when he is prompted by the call of nature.
لا صلاة بحضرة الطعام، ولا وهو يدافعه الأخبثان
