It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever among you waits for the prayer, he is considered to be in prayer as long as he waits for it, and the angels continue to pray for his forgiveness as long as he remains seated at his place of prayer, and they keep saying: O Allah, forgive him; O Allah, have mercy on him, as long as he does not lose his ablution. A man from Hadramaut asked: O Abu Hurairah, what is meant by losing ablution? He replied: Allah is not shy of the truth; it means that wind passes from him or a loud sound comes out.
