In the Name of Allāh, the Entirely Gracious, the Exclusively Merciful

📩 Question:

The questioner asks: Is the prayer nullified if the person prays and he has some food in his mouth?

📝 The answer:

If he swallows the food while it is manifest and he can get rid of it, and he can feel it, then it nullifies his prayer. If he put water in his mouth and spat it out, and he tries hard in removing the remains of the food but small remnants remain which he is not aware of, it flows with his saliva, then the scholars said: ‘It is not possible to take precaution against this and it does not nullify the prayer nor the fast’.

As for if he can feel it, and he can get rid of it, then he must not swallow it, not in the prayer and not during the fast, as it will nullify the worship. May Allah grand us and your success.
