Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) said: In Qunoot are included bowing, humility, lowering the gaze, and humbleness out of fear of Allah the Exalted. When the scholars would stand in prayer, they would not raise their gaze due to the awe of the Most Merciful, Glorified and Exalted, nor would they play with anything, nor look here and there, nor turn over pebbles, nor think about worldly matters in their hearts, except what might happen by mistake.
