Sunan Abi Dawud 910 (Book 2, Hadith 521) #21202
Avoiding Distractions During Prayer

SUMMARY: Looking to the sides during prayer is something which the devil snatches from a servant's prayers.

'A’ishah said: I asked the Messenger of Allah about looking to the sides during prayer. He said: It is something which the devil snatches from a servant’s prayers.
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ، عَنِ الأَشْعَثِ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ سُلَيْمٍ - عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، - رضى الله عنها - قَالَتْ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَنِ الْتِفَاتِ الرَّجُلِ فِي الصَّلاَةِ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّمَا هُوَ اخْتِلاَسٌ يَخْتَلِسُهُ الشَّيْطَانُ مِنْ صَلاَةِ الْعَبْدِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Stay focused on Allah during prayer time , Keep yourself in check so nothing can come between you and Him during prayer time .
EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us that when we are praying, it is important to focus on our worship and not be distracted by anything else. He said that if we look around while praying, it gives an opportunity for the devil to take away some of our prayer. This means that if we want Allah SWT to accept our prayers and give us rewards for them, then we must stay focused on Him and not let anything distract us. We should also remember that Allah SWT knows what is in our hearts and minds even when we are not speaking or doing something outwardly. Therefore it is important for us to keep ourselves in check so that nothing can come between us and Him during prayer time.
