The importance of humility in prayer is felt in two aspects: The first is that it perfects prayer and is its very essence. Humility means the presence of the heart, namely that, when the person prays, recites, bows and prostrates, they keep in mind that they are in this great worship. They should not do these things while their heart is elsewhere. The second is that humility in prayer increases the reward. Allah, Mighty and Exalted be He, has indeed praised those who are humble in their prayer.

Humility in Prayer, by Al-Hafiz ibn Rajab al-Hanbali
"The importance of humility in prayer is felt in two aspects: The first is that it perfects the prayer and is its very essence. Humility means the presence of the heart, namely that, when the person prays, recites, bows and prostrates, they keep in mind that they are in this great worship. They should not do these things while their heart is elsewhere.
The second is that humility in prayer increases the reward. Allah, Mighty and Exalted be He, has indeed praised those who are humble in their prayer.
As for what helps with humility: that the person completely frees their heart when they are about to pray and that they feel that they are standing before Allah, Mighty and Exalted be He, and that Allah, Mighty and Exalted be He, knows what is in their heart, just as he knows the movements of their body. He is not like the kings: it is possible to stand before a king while appearing well, while the heart is in another place, while the king is unaware of this. On the contrary, Allah, Mighty and Exalted be He, knows what is apparent from you, as well as what is hidden. So feel that you are standing before Allah." Shaykh Muhammad ibn Salih al-'Uthaymin (d. 1421 H.), Liqa' al-bab al-maftuh.
