The Ruling on Holding a Phone During Prayer
What is the ruling on holding a phone during night prayer or placing the device in front of me, knowing that I turn the page every rak'ah?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Reading from the phone is receiving from others according to Abu Hanifa, and this invalidates the prayer, and God knows best.
