Is this authentic?
Sayyidah ‘Aaishah (radiyallahu ‘anha) reported, “I asked Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) about turning and looking here and there in Salah. He replied: ‘It is what Shaytan steals from your prayer.”
Answer:
Imam Bukhari (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration in his Sahih. The Hadith is therefore authentic.
(Sahih Bukhari, Hadith: 751 and 3291)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
