The Extent of the Effect of Whispers on Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I often engage in self-talk during prayer regarding worldly matters. Does this affect the validity of the prayer?
Answer:
Whispers during prayer, and self-talk, affect its humility and the reward you receive. You only get from your prayer what you understood of it and to which you devoted your heart. So strive to abandon whispers and talk about your worldly affairs, and exert yourself in focusing on the prayer. Allah the Exalted says: [Al-Mu'minun:2]. And in the authentic hadith, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: .
The point is: you must exert yourself in focusing on the prayer, bringing your heart to it, being humble in it, and guarding against whispers and self-talk that disturb your prayer. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
