Giving Ring as Charity: Difference between revisions

Some have said that paying attention to the beggar and hearing his words in the prayer is incompatible with descriptions of the mystical states of Imam Ali (a) during prayer. Some others have answered this question, saying that both Imam Ali’s (a) prayer and his giving were for God; thus, there is no problem if someone hears the voice of a beggar and also gives him for the sake of God; the same way that the Prophet (a) heard the voice of a crying child and finished the prayer faster than usual. ‘Allama Majlisi said that paying attention to another person’s prayer does not disagree with the perfection of prayer and presence of heart in the prayer.
