Whoever Broke Wind during Prayer
Question :
If a man came to prayer, and during the prayer he broke wind, should he leave, or wait until the prayer is over and then repeat it, even though it be in the final Tashahhud?
Answer:
It has been reported in a Hadith:
*If any of you breaks wind during prayer, he should hold his nose and leave the prayer.
Based upon this, it is clear that the one who breaks wind must leave the prayer and go to renew his ablution. However, if he is in the front row, and it is difficult for him to pass through the rows, he may remain until the end of the prayer, then repeat it. And there is no difference between breaking wind at the beginning of the prayer and in the final Tashahhud.
