Abdullah b. Sa'id reported: The Apostle of Allah ﷺ led us in the morning prayer in Mecca and began Sarat al-Mu'minin (xxiii ) but when he came to the mention of Moses and Aaron (verse. 45) or to the mention of Jesus (verse 50), a cough got the better of him, and he bowed'.Abdullah b. Sa'ib was present there, and in the hadith narrated by Abd al-Razzaq (the words are): He cut short (the recitation) and bowed.
The hadith also reminds us of how important it is to take care of our health so that we can perform our religious duties properly without interruption from illness or discomfort. We should strive to maintain good physical health so that we can focus on worshipping God without distraction from sicknesses like coughing fits during prayer time.
