A sheikh answered this and said, if I know that shaitan will pray if I don't fold it, I'll be the first one to leave it unfolded, it is khurafah , because we kept listening this thing from very beginning we believe that it is right but unfortunately it is not, may Allah give all us hidayah and keep us away from khurafat, by the way before 10 minutes I were also believing in it😂
@@tarekharidy4305right?! It doesn’t make any sense at all. Is this like a desi superstition or something? I remember the first time I heard this from a Pakistani sister and I thought what in the world? So isn’t it a good thing, shouldn’t I want to be someone that encouraged shaytan to pray? This belief makes it sound as if prayer is a bad thing astaghfirullah. May Allah guide us all. Ameen.
Assalamualaikum wa rahmatulahi wa barakatuhu! For those who may not know, this is a lie and it doesn't happen. Only put your mat away to keep it clean, that's all 🤗
Once I told my mom "umma, why does shaytan pray, and even if it does isn't it a good thing. Let it be" and she smacked me 🙂 Edit: WO WO WO GUYS CHILL, don't judge a book by its cover. My mom, she is my BEST FRIEND and my everything. It was a friendly smack like don't get my words wrong. My mom is one of the sweetest human I ever seen in my existence, she been strict with me whenever it needed and on other times, she's chill, alhamdullilah, I'm so blessed to have a mother like her. I'm so luck Allah swt have me a mom like her. We goof around all the time and it's not what you think. I just got a notification yrs after and I seen few these comments..... I'm so grateful to have someone like my mom around me. She didn't hurt me like that it was a friendly thing. 😭
We need to reintroduce critical thinking to the ummah. This was a baseless lie that circulated amongst us that is not found in anything from the Quran and authentic sunnah..
The real fact is we should keep our sajdah place clean, if we keep the prayer mat open, the dust particals will stick to the prayer mat and hence the mat will be dirty and also if accidentally anyone steps with their uncleaned feet on the sajdah place of the prayer mat it would be dirty as well .to avoid this it is said to fold and keep the prayer mat. But due to lack of complete knowledge about this fact our parents used to say this that "saithan will pray on it and that's y we will forget our prayer" . As they also heard about this from their own parents too .like this from generation by generation they started saying it and lost the real meaning of this practice.

@@FreeFire-th9wt Sir don't you think my answer is also valid 🤔. I don't know 🤷♀️. What do you think about it ? Please let me know your opinion in this 🙂
@@shopreflects3716 my opinion is not important but the important is what is the truth, and if you want to know my opinion then I'm not against what you said 👍👍
I have to point out that dust particles don't make the prayer mat najis 😊 neither does walking over it with feet without wudu. We pray with the mat just to make sure there is no impurity in the place where we pray, but impure in islam is not the same as dirty. Someone may say that if there is mud on the mat, it's impurity - no. It may be perceived to be dirty but mud is pure and we are allowed to pray outside in the muddy ground as well. If there is urine, feces, menstrual blood, blood of impure animals, etc then it's impure and we have to clean it or pray somewhere else.
I am so blessed to have a God that does not require ritual in prayer. I can pray and speak to God all day long, giving Him praise and thanks wherever I am. The Holy Spirit is with me always.
@@justaman12 Because this belief of placing importance on prayer mats even thinking that the devil will pray on it are baseless, that's why it's funny if you didn't get it

my wife said Exactly the same, what about those who pray on the carpet like in the mosque, so it's just a superstition I'm sure, Allah knows best but I don't think there's any truth to that and I don't think the devil prayers, as the devil cries when verses of the Quran or Bible are read to it, during exorcism, the Devil is driven out by verses of the Quran, there is however jinn, that are both Muslim and non Muslim, those that are Muslim read namaaz and Quran, so maybe they mean the jinn. But they are everywhere.
@@awm7896desr akhi, Shaytaan/Devil is a personification of humanity's lower urges and destructive behaviours, foremost of which is pride (in fact in most of the Abrahamic tradition you'll notice the account of Shaitaan's pride when ordered to bow). I love our folklore but we need to distinguish it from the deep multilayered experience that is the Qur'an. So don't stress, leave your mats. It's probably was a boogeyman story parents told their children to teach the chore of folding and putting away the prayer rug. Similar to Western folklore of if you don't listen your parents will call some witch or other entity to take you or punish you (lol at least in the Eastern Europe, our parent will forever give us PTSD😅😂😂😂)
The first time someone said this to me, I was stunned😕 "Shaytaan prays? If so why should I prevent him/her from praying?"😓 I felt just as stupid as they were just for responding to their stupid remark😅
Its not shirk but it is bid3a, by folding the prayer mat you are not associating anything with allah but it is not part of islam so you cant think of it like that.
Imagine a 1.8 billion people believe that if the wife says "no" To her husband for sex due to any reason. The Satan will curse her all night. This pagan cult of ☪️ is dangerous for women and Children. Sahih al-Bukhari 3237 Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "If a husband calls his wife to his bed (i.e. to have sexual relation) and she refuses and causes him to sleep in anger, the angels will curse her till morning." sunnah.com/bukhari:3237 Sahih al-Bukhari 3237 Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "If a husband calls his wife to his bed (i.e. to have sexual relation) and she refuses and causes him to sleep in anger, the angels will curse her till morning." What if she has her menses? What a bunch of Idiot Muhammad was 🤦♂️
@@Pandie2828 i just didn't remember those quotes and made my version of the concept lol, btw i'm italian so I just translated those lines from italian ver of the cartoon (the ita translation is really accurate so it should be the same in english?) Lmao
For me as a Muslim, I have not heard about it all my life, and I think it is self-evident how my leaving the carpet allows the devil to pray, and does the devil even pray, and if he prays, I will not mind. I am the first one who will support the devil’s repentance. Thinking about it If Satan repents Of course he will be punished but then return to heaven. All Satan has done to humans is whispering, but truth be told, we are the ones who decide to listen to him and do the wrong thing If your somebody gives you bad advice, you will still be blamed for not making the right decision

This is bi'dah an innovative information. Please for the sake of Allah upload the correct information where some newly reverts won't have to be misguided. Thank you 🙏
Asslamalikum, Hope you all are doing great, Believing that devil will offer nazam if we don’t fold the mat is completely shirk. When I was a kid I use to that but my Islamic Sir told me that’s a major sin in Islam.
When you go to the mosque are them carpets clear of people's feet or do they walk everywhere even where we out our face. We need to worry about bigger issues in the masjid. Like people who pek the floor in sujood or don't recite moving there tongues.
I asked my brother this when he left his prayer mat open and he said why he should fold a corner of it and I said doesn't shaytan pray on it? And then he said that isn't it a good thing if he prayed? And then I realised it was culture and not islam
i do question my mom and i give my own insights for this case, it is because we do not want the area on the mat where we sujud get stepped on by others which is disrespectful to make it dirty. i love logical reasoning in explaining things old folks do. however i don't use logical reasoning when it comes to aqidah, because there is no need for that.
@@yuutoyasashii5282 yeah I don't like someone stepping on the place where I put my forehead on. But there are many superstitions that just seem ridiculous and sometimes the reason for that is even more ridiculous

Good upbringing. The parents did not want the mat to get dirty .Shaitan will remain cursed upto end time so will never pray..However his followers can beg forgiveness and if Allah accepts their forgiveness then they will pray in any clean place in the manner shown by best of the creation. In all the mosques the carpets are open always
@@mohamedafzal159 oh okay thanks! So if we keep our carpets open shaitan will not pray on them but it's just for keeping the carpet clean, at first I thought it sounded kinda weird cuz why would the devil even be praying lol
“The Noble Messenger of Allāh Almighty ﷺ states, ‘You should fold your clothes such that the clothes feel comfort because the Devil does not wear the clothes that he sees as folded, and he uses those that he sees left spread out unfolded.’” [al-Mu’jam al-Awsat, vol. 6, p. 328, Hadīth no. 5698] While this does not mention prayer mats, one may wish to fold their mat given we are advised to fold other material. However, there is no mention of folding the corners or of Shaytan in this Hadith. In fact, the concept of a prayer mat came later.
My mom once told me that these are lies because why would shaytan pray and also another lie is don’t leave the Quran open because shaytan will recite the Quran. If shaytan does the prayers and recites the Quran it turns into almost an angel and u will get blessing that will help you in jannat❤
My mom told me once if you don’t fold it the devil will pray on it but I said the devil don’t pray and what’s wrong if the devil prays he would become a angel
Sunan an-Nasa'i 5211 It was narrated that 'Ali said: "The Messenger of Allah [SAW] forbade me to wear a ring on this one and this one," meaning the forefinger and middle finger. And this is the wording of Ibn Al-Muthanna.
I know, right! My elder brother always countered this misconception by saying "If I can get shaytan to pray just by leaving my mat open, what could be better than that?"
Shouldn’t mock over this The main reason to fold the mat is so that it doesn’t get dirty especially living in Asian countries where there used to be more open space, getting dust was very common and also do that kids don’t walk over with their shoes on .., The purpose of using praying mat is so the place of prayer is clean and oure
