Ruling on looking away from the place of prostration during prayer and excessive movements

He also asks and says: We pray in the desert, and none of us restricts his gaze to the place of his prostration; rather, he extends his vision across the desert. Does this invalidate the prayer?
Answer: Extending the gaze toward the imam in the desert, or to the right or left, does not invalidate the prayer, but it is disliked. The Sunnah is to be humble in prayer, to devote oneself to it, and to lower the gaze to the place of prostration, as Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) said: : [Al-Mu’minun:1-2]. It is also narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that among the signs of humility is lowering the gaze to the place of prostration. The imams and scholars have also stated the lawfulness of lowering the gaze to the place of prostration, because this gathers the heart and keeps one further from movement and fidgeting. So the Sunnah for the believer is to lower his gaze and not look here and there, neither in the desert nor elsewhere, but rather to be humble in his prayer, devote himself to it, and leave off movements. Some people may fidget with their watch, their beard, their nose, or something of their clothing, and this is contrary to what is prescribed. Fidgeting is disliked except out of necessity, if it is slight. As for much, continuous fidgeting, it invalidates the prayer. The believer should seek humility and strive for humility in his prayer, stillness, and lack of movement until he completes it, acting in accordance with the saying of His Lord (Glorified and Exalted is He): [Al-Mu’minun:1-2], and acting in accordance with the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): , . He commanded them to be still, which means leaving off movement and leaving off fidgeting. May Allah guide them all.
