Chapter 39: Stopping (the passing person) as much as possible - كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ، أَنْبَأَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى أَبُو الْمُعَلَّى، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ الْعُرَنِيِّ، قَالَ ذُكِرَ عِنْدَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ مَا يَقْطَعُ الصَّلاَةَ فَذَكَرُوا الْكَلْبَ وَالْحِمَارَ وَالْمَرْأَةَ فَقَالَ مَا تَقُولُونَ فِي الْجَدْىِ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ كَانَ يُصَلِّي يَوْمًا فَذَهَبَ جَدْىٌ يَمُرُّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَبَادَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ الْقِبْلَةَ .
It was
narrated that Hasan Al-‘Urani said:
‘Mention was made in the
presence of Ibn ‘Abbas about what severs the prayer. They mentioned
a
dog, a donkey and a woman. He said: ‘What do you say about kids
(young
goats)? The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was performing prayer one
day,
when a kid came and wanted to pass in front of him. The
Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ) preceded it toward the Qiblah. (to tighten
the space and
prevent it from passing in front of him).’”
Chapter 39: Stopping (the passing person) as much as possible - كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الأَحْمَرُ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ
" إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيُصَلِّ إِلَى سُتْرَةٍ. وَلْيَدْنُ مِنْهَا. وَلاَ يَدَعْ أَحَدًا يَمُرُّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ. فَإِنْ جَاءَ أَحَدٌ يَمُرَّ فَلْيُقَاتِلْهُ. فَإِنَّهُ شَيْطَانٌ " .
It was
narrated from ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abu Sa’eed that his father
said:
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘When anyone of you performs
prayer, let him pray facing towards a Sutrah, and let him get close
to
it, and not let anyone pass in front of him. If someone comes and
wants to pass in front of him, let him fight him, for he is a Shaitan
(satan).’”
It was
narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar that the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) said:
“When anyone of you is performing prayer, he should not
let anyone pass in front of him. If he insists then let him fight
him,
for he has a Qarin (devil-companion) with him.”

Maimunah,
the wife of the Prophet (ﷺ), said:
“The Prophet (ﷺ)
used to
perform prayer when I was opposite to him, and his garment
would
sometimes touch me when he prostrated.”

It was
narrated that Abu Hurairah said:
“The Prophet (ﷺ) used to
teach
us not to bow or prostrate before the Imam; when he says the
Takbir
then say the Takbir, and when he prostrates, you should
prostrate.”
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said: ‘I
have gained weight, so when I bow, then bow, and when I stand
up,
then stand up, and when I prostrate, then prostrate. I should
never
find anyone preceding me in bowing or prostration.’”
It was
narrated that Mu’awiyah bin Abu Sufyan said:
“The Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Do not bow or prostrate before me. No matter how
far ahead of you I bow, you will catch up with me when I stand up,
and
no matter how far ahead of you I prostrate, you will catch up
with me
when I raise my head. I have become bulky.’”

It was
narrated from Ka’b bin ‘Ujrah that the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ)
saw a man who had interlocked his fingers during the prayer, so
the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) separated his fingers.
“The Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) said: ‘There are three whose prayer are not accepted: A man
who
leads people while they do not like him; a man who does not come
to
prayer until its end – meaning after its time has expired –
and one
who enslaves a freed person.’”
It was
narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said:
“There are three whose prayer do not rise more than a hand span
above their heads: A man who leads people (in prayer) when they do
not
like him; a woman who has spent the night with her husband angry
with
her; and two brothers who have severed contact with one
another.”

It was
narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said:
“I stayed overnight with my
maternal aunt Maimunah, and the Prophet (ﷺ) got up during the night
to perform prayer. So I got up and stood on his left. He took me by
the hand and made me stand on his right.”

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ، أَنْبَأَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَمْسَحُ مَنَاكِبَنَا فِي الصَّلاَةِ وَيَقُولُ
" لاَ تَخْتَلِفُوا، فَتَخْتَلِفَ قُلُوبُكُمْ، لِيَلِيَنِي مِنْكُمْ أُولُو الأَحْلاَمِ وَالنُّهَى، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ " .
It was
narrated that Abu Mas’ud Al-Ansari said:
“The Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ) used to gently pat our shoulders (to make sure the row was
straight) at the time of prayer, saying: ‘Keep (the rows) straight,
do
not differ from one another lest your hearts should suffer from
discord. Let those who are forbearing and wise stand closest to me,
then those who are next to them, then those who are next to them.’”
