How can we get rid of bad thoughts that come to our minds while praying? Should we continue to pray when bad thoughts come to the mind or start it again? The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
The thoughts that come to the mind while performing prayer do not invalidate the prayer and sajdah as-sahw is not required. So, the prayer is performed despite these thoughts and it is not broken and started again.
