Recitation Errors in Prayer.

Answered by Ustadh Tabraze Azam

Question: Assalam alaykum

I am learning to pray with tajwid but it makes me very self conscious…sometimes I repeat a word many times to correct it…Do these mistakes invalidate the prayer?

Answer: Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah,

Most recitation errors are excusable. Focus on your pronunciation outside of the prayer, and focus on the one you’re praying to within it. Ask Allah Most High to facilitate matters for you.

Please see this answer.

And Allah Most High knows best.
