Answer by: Fadhīlat al-Shaykh Saʿīd Mujtabā Saʿīdī (ḥafiẓahullāh)
Shaykh, a heart patient asks: If chest pain occurs during prayer, can he place medication under his tongue while still in prayer?
It is not permissible to eat or drink anything during Salah. If a person begins to feel unwell during prayer, the correct course of action is to:
➊ Break the prayer,
➋ Use the necessary medication,
➌ And then, after recovery, repeat the prayer.
