FIQH 2.93: PRAYING WHEN ONE NEEDS TO ANSWER THE CALL OF NATURE AND OTHER THINGS THAT MAY DISTRACT A PERSON

Thauban reports that the Messenger of Allah said: “There are three acts which are not allowed: For a person to lead a people in prayer and then make supplications for himself without including them, for then he would be dishonest to them; to look inside a house without obtaining permission, for if he does so (it is as if) he has already entered it (without permission); and to offer prayer while he needs to answer the call of nature until he relieves himself.” This is related by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, and at-Tirmidhi who calls it hasan.

‘Aishah reported that she heard the Messenger of Allah say: “No one should pray when the food is served nor when one needs to answer the call of nature.” This is related by Ahmad, Muslim, and Abu Dawud.

Fiqh 2.93 a: Praying when one is overcome by sleep

‘Aishah reports that the Messenger of Allah said: “When one of you becomes drowsy in salah, he should lie down until he is fresh again; otherwise, he will not know if he is asking forgiveness or vilifying himself.” This is related by the group.

Abu Hurairah reports that the Messenger of Allah said: “When one of you gets up at night for salah and his tongue falters in reciting the Qur’an and he is not certain about what he is reciting, he should sleep.” This is related by Ahmad and Muslim.

Fiqh 2.93 b: Praying at a fixed place in the mosque [except in the case of the imam]

‘Abdurrahman ibn Shabl said: “The Prophet prohibited pecking like a crow [i.e., while prostrating], imitating a lion’s manner of sitting, and a man to pick a special place in the mosque [to pray] like a camel has his own place [to sit].” This is related by Ahmad, ibn Khuzaimah, ibn Hibban, and by al-Hakaim who calls it sahih.
