Question |
What do respected scholars of Islam say
about offering Salah with eyes closed? Can we do that or not? |
بِسْمِ اللہِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ |
اَلْجَوَابُ بِعَوْنِ الْمَلِکِ
الْوَھَّابِ اَللّٰھُمَّ ھِدَایَۃَ الْحَقِّ وَالصَّوَابِ |
To offer Salah with eyes closed is
permissible but it is Makruh –e-Tanzeehi i.e it is not a sin, it is better to
avoid it. However, if anyone fails to maintain concentration and humility
during Salah when his eyes are open and he maintains concentration and
humility when eyes are closed, so there is absolutely no harm for him in
keeping eyes closed. In fact, it is better for him. |
