Staying in Prayer Until Something is Heard or Smelled

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) taught that one should not leave their prayer unless they hear a sound or smell something.

Narrated 'Abbad bin Tamim: My uncle said: The Prophet said, "One should not leave his prayer unless he hears sound or smells something".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ تَمِيمٍ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَنْصَرِفْ حَتَّى يَسْمَعَ صَوْتًا أَوْ يَجِدَ رِيحًا

QUICK LESSONS:
Remain focused on your prayers even when there are distractions around you. Be respectful of others who may be praying by not making too much noise or distracting them with strong smells while they are in the middle of their prayers.

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught his followers to stay in prayer until they hear a sound or smell something. This means that if someone is praying and hears a sound, such as someone talking, they should pause their prayer until the noise stops. Similarly, if someone smells something while praying, such as food cooking nearby, then they should pause their prayer until the smell dissipates. This hadith teaches us to be mindful of our surroundings and to remain focused on our prayers even when there are distractions around us. It also encourages us to be respectful of others who may be praying by not making too much noise or distracting them with strong smells while they are in the middle of their prayers.
