Ruling on Interrupting Prayer Due to Stomach Pain

Question
Sometimes when performing prayer, I feel pain in my stomach, so I interrupt the prayer and perform ablution. What is the ruling on that?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is permissible to interrupt the prayer for necessity. If a pressing necessity arises due to illness, it is allowed for you to interrupt and then repeat it, and God knows best.
