Q- If I am praying and somebody rings the doorbell, and nobody is in the house except me, what should I do? A - If the prayer is voluntary one, the matter is much easier as nothing prevents you from stopping your prayer and seeing who is at the door. However, if it is an obligatory prayer, then you should not rush your prayer unless it is something very important that you fear will be missed. If possible, you may alert the person at the door that you are busy in prayer ý by saying Subhan Allah for men or clapping for women. That would be sufficient. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: ýIf anything happens to someone during the prayer, the men should say Subhan Allah and the women should clap.ý If you can make it clear to whoever is at the door that you are in prayer, then do that. However, if the door is far away and the person will not hear you, then there is no harm in breaking the prayer, in particular if it is a voluntary one. If it is an obligatory prayer, you should only do that if it is expected that that is something very important. In that case, you may break off the prayer and then repeat it from its beginning afterwards. ý Sheikh Bin Baz; Fatawa Al-Marýah http://saudigazette.com.sa/index.cfm?method=home.regcon&contentID=2009040333993
