The answer

Humility (Khushu') and focus are very important in prayer; they are its spirit and its fruit. However, Allah the Almighty did not make them a condition for the prayer's validity. Thus, a Muslim should strive to achieve humility in prayer and will not be held accountable for what is beyond their capacity.
