382. (Another chain) in which Abū Hamzah narrated: "A boy of ours named Rabāh." (Hasan)
Abū 'Eisā said: The chain for the Hadīth of Umm Salamah is not that strong. Maimūn Abū Hamzah was graded weak by some of the people of knowledge.
The people of knowledge differ over blowing during Ṣalāt, some of them said if he blows during the Ṣalāt he restarts his Ṣalāt. This is
the saying of Sufyān Ath-Thawrī and the people fo Al-Kūfah. Some of them said that blowing in the Ṣalāt is disliked but if he blows in his Ṣalāt it does not invalidate his Ṣalāt. This is the saying of Aḥmad and Ishāq.

Commentary
Prayer is a practice of humbleness, humility and begging of Allāh ﷻ; to avoid the face touching the dust is contrary to this all. Therefore blowing the dust away is not right. According to the four A'immah, if blown in such a way that sounds like the voice is used, then the prayer is invalid.
