3757. It was narrated from Nāfi', from Ibn 'Umar that the Prophet ﷺ said: "If supper is served for one of you, and the Iqāmah for prayer has been called, he should not get up until he has finished eating." Musad-dad (one of the narrators) added: "If supper was served for 'Abdullah' - or "if supper was ready - he would not get up until he had finished eating, even if he could hear the Iqāmah and even if he could hear the Imām's recitation." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
3757 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، وَمُسَدَّدٌ الْمَعْنَى - قَالَ أَحْمَدُ - حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى الْقَطَّانُ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي نَافِعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِذَا وُضِعَ عَشَاءُ أَحَدِكُمْ، وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَلَا يَقُومُ حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ» زَادَ مُسَدَّدٌ: «وَكَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ إِذَا وُضِعَ عَشَاؤُهُ، أَوْ حَضَرَ عَشَاؤُهُ، لَمْ يَقُمْ حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ، وَإِنْ سَمِعَ الْإِقَامَةَ، وَإِنْ سَمِعَ قِرَاءَةَ الْإِمَامِ»

Ṣalāt is such an act worship in which supplications to Allāh are made, and His favors are begged, therefore, one should be free from his bodily demands, like eating, drinking and the urge to relieve himself, so that one will be able to concentrate on worship.
