Sahih al-Bukhari 5817 (Book 77, Hadith 34) #5578
Distraction During Prayer

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) was distracted during prayer due to the printed marks on his Khamisa, so he asked for a plain sheet from Abu Jahm bin Hudhaifa bin Ghanim.

Narrated Aisha: Allah's Messenger offered prayer while he was wearing a Khamisa of his that had printed marks. He looked at its marks and when he finished prayer, he said, "Take this Khamisa of mine to Abu Jahm, for it has just now diverted my attention from my prayer, and bring to me the Anbijania (a plain thick sheet) of Abu Jahm bin Hudhaifa bin Ghanim who belonged to Bani Adi bin Ka'b".
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فِي خَمِيصَةٍ لَهُ لَهَا أَعْلاَمٌ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَى أَعْلاَمِهَا نَظْرَةً، فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ قَالَ ‏ "‏ اذْهَبُوا بِخَمِيصَتِي هَذِهِ إِلَى أَبِي جَهْمٍ، فَإِنَّهَا أَلْهَتْنِي آنِفًا عَنْ صَلاَتِي، وَائْتُونِي بِأَنْبِجَانِيَّةِ أَبِي جَهْمِ بْنِ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ غَانِمٍ مِنْ بَنِي عَدِيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of focusing during prayer. It is narrated by Aisha that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was praying while wearing a khamisa with printed marks on it. He noticed these marks and when he finished his prayer, he asked for an anbijania from Abu Jahm bin Hudhaifa bin Ghanim which was a plain thick sheet without any prints or patterns. This shows us that even something as small as a patterned cloth can be distracting during prayer and we should take extra care to ensure our focus is solely on Allah SWT when we are in salat. We should also make sure that our clothes are not too flashy or have any kind of patterns or prints that could potentially distract us from our prayers.
