Chapter on Praying in Shoes
Hadith 1426
عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي يَنْفَتِلُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ، وَرَأَيْتُهُ يُصَلِّي حَافِيًا وَمُنْتَعِلًا، وَرَأَيْتُهُ يَشْرَبُ قَائِمًا وَقَاعِدًا
Sayyiduna Amr bin Shu'aib narrates from his father, and he from his grandfather (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As, may Allah be pleased with him), who says: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performing prayer; after finishing, sometimes he would turn to the right side and sometimes to the left side. He would also pray barefoot and sometimes with shoes on. I also saw that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would drink while standing and also while sitting.
Hadith 1427
عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى فَخَلَعَ نَعْلَيْهِ فَخَلَعَ النَّاسُ نِعَالَهُمْ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ: ((لِمَ خَلَعْتُمْ نِعَالَكُمْ؟)) فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! رَأَيْنَاكَ خَلَعْتَ فَخَلَعْنَا، قَالَ: ((إِنَّ جِبْرِيلَ أَتَانِي فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ بِهِمَا خَبَثًا، فَإِذَا جَاءَ أَحَدُكُمُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَلْيَقْلِبْ نَعْلَهُ فَلْيَنْظُرْ فِيهِمَا، فَإِنْ رَأَى بِهِمَا خَبَثًا فَلْيَمْسَحْهُ بِالْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ لْيُصَلِّ فِيهِمَا))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was praying, when suddenly he took off his shoes. Seeing this, the people praying behind him also took off their shoes. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) finished the prayer, he asked the people: "Why did you take off your shoes?" The people replied: "O Messenger of Allah! When we saw you take off your shoes, we also took ours off." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Jibril (peace be upon him) came to me and informed me that there was impurity on them (so I took off my shoes)." (Now the ruling regarding this is that) when a person comes to the mosque, he should turn his shoes over and look at them; if he sees any filth on them, he should clean it by rubbing it on the ground, and then he may pray in them.
Hadith 1428
عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ أَبِي مَسْلَمَةَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي فِي نَعْلَيْهِ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ
Abu Muslima Saeed bin Yazid says: I asked Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), "Did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) pray in his shoes?" He replied: Yes.
Hadith 1429
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي قَائِمًا وَقَاعِدًا وَحَافِيًا وَمُنْتَعِلًا

عَنْ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي فِي نَعْلَيْهِ، قَالَ: فَتَنَخَّمَ فَتَفَلَهُ تَحْتَ نَعْلِهِ الْيُسْرَى، قَالَ: ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُهُ حَكَّهَا بِنَعْلَيْهِ وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ: فَدَلَكَهَا بِنَعْلِهِ الْيُسْرَى
Abu Alaa bin Shakheer narrates from his father, who says that he saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) praying in his shoes. When he needed to clear his throat, he spat beneath his left shoe, then rubbed it with his shoes.

Hadith 1431
عَنْ أَبِي الْأَوْبَرِ قَالَ: أَتَى رَجُلٌ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، فَقَالَ: أَنْتَ الَّذِي تَنْهَى النَّاسَ أَنْ يُصَلُّوا وَعَلَيْهِمْ نِعَالُهُمْ؟ قَالَ: لَا، وَلَكِنْ وَرَبِّ هَٰذِهِ الْحُرْمَةِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي إِلَى هَٰذَا الْمَقَامِ وَعَلَيْهِ نَعْلَاهُ وَانْصَرَفَ وَهُمَا عَلَيْهِ، وَنَهَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ صِيَامِ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ فِي أَيَّامٍ (وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ): رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى فِي نَعْلَيْهِ
Abu al-Awbar says that a man came to Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: Are you the one who forbids people from praying in shoes? Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: No, rather, by the Lord of this Haram, I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) praying towards this place while wearing shoes, and when he finished the prayer, he was wearing shoes. (Consider further that) the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade fasting on Friday unless it coincides with other days. And in another narration: I saw the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he prayed in his shoes.
Hadith 1432
عَنْ مُجَمِّعِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ غُلَامٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ قُبَاءٍ أَنَّهُ أَدْرَكَهُ شَيْخًا أَنَّهُ قَالَ: جَاءَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِقُبَاءٍ فَجَلَسَ فِي فَيْءِ الْأَحْمَرِ (وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ فِي فِنَاءِ الْأَجْمِ) وَاجْتَمَعَ إِلَيْهِ نَاسٌ فَاسْتَسْقَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسُقِيَ فَشَرِبَ وَأَنَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَأَنَا أَحْدَثُ الْقَوْمِ، فَنَاوَلَنِي فَشَرِبْتُ وَحَفِظْتُ أَنَّهُ صَلَّى بِنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ الصَّلَاةَ وَعَلَيْهِ نَعْلَاهُ لَمْ يَنْزَعْهُمَا
Majma’ bin Ya’qub narrates from a boy of the people of Quba, whom he found in old age. He said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, came to us at Quba and sat in the shade of dense trees, and people gathered around him. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, asked for water, so water was given to him and he drank it. I was on his right side and I was a young boy among the people, then he handed (the cup) to me and I also drank from it. I remember that on that day the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, led us in prayer while he was wearing his shoes and did not take them off.

Nevertheless, he replied: One day the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, came to us in our mosque, that is, the Mosque of Quba.
