Having a Hiccup while Praying Fatwa No: 446656
- Fatwa Date:31-8-2021
Salaam,Is my prayer valid if I stated to have hiccups while praying and then continued to pray even though the hiccups were frequent throughout the prayer - it would interior during my recitation but I would just repeat the parts that got interrupted. JazakAllahKhair
All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.
As long as you have performed the pillars of the Prayer and its obligations as they should be performed, the occurrence of this hiccup during the prayer does not harm and your prayer does not become invalidated due to it.
Allah Knows best.
