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.
