- Human Speech: Any audible speech, including sounds meant to convey meaning (e.g., calling a pet), invalidates prayer. Thoughts are not considered.
- Supplicating with Human Speech: Using words that sound like speech, even if from a memorized source like the Quran, invalidates prayer if the meaning resembles a human request rather than a spiritual supplication to God.
- Greeting with Salaam: If salaams are exchanged too early or intentionally during prayer, it invalidates the prayer.
- Clearing Throat/Crying/Grumbling: Unintentional sounds due to pain or distress do not invalidate prayer, provided the sounds are not excessive or prolonged. Deliberate or excessive sounds do invalidate the prayer
