634. Got Distractions In Salaah? Then Do This

By Asma bint Shameem

When you get too distracted in Salaah and can’t seem to focus no matter how hard you try, then don’t worry. 

There is  a solution. 

One of the Sahaabah complained about the same thing to the Prophet sal Allaahu Alayhi wa sallam. 

He said:
"The Shaytaan comes between me and my Salaah and causes me problems with my recitation." 

So the Messenger of Allaah Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam said: 
"That is a shaitan called *Khanzab*, so if you feel his presence, seek refuge in Allaah and spit drily (spittle) to your left three times." 

He  (the Sahaabi) said: "I applied this advice and Allaah has rid me of him." (Muslim)

Alhamdulillaah, what a beautiful Deen! 

It has a solution for every situation and every problem. 

So the next time you can’t concentrate in your Salaah, do the following:

1- Say Aoodhu billaahi min ash-Shaytaanir-Rajeem. 

2- Turn your head to the left and spit DRILY three times. 

3- Continue with your prayer. 

4- You can repeat this several  times as needed and in ANY position in the Salah. 

How do you spit drily?

Blow air out of your mouth in a manner that the minutest drops of saliva also come out with it. 

And Allaah knows best.
