Chapter on the Duration the Imam Remains After Prayer and the Permissibility of Turning Right or Left
Hadith 1839
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: مَا كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَجْلِسُ بَعْدَ صَلَاتِهِ إِلَّا قَدْرَ مَا يَقُولُ: ((اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ السَّلَامُ وَمِنْكَ السَّلَامُ تَبَارَكْتَ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ))
Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to remain after his prayer for as long as it took to recite this supplication: "O Allah! You are As-Salam and from You is peace. Blessed are You, O Possessor of Majesty and Honor." (O Allah! You are As-Salam and peace is from You. O Possessor of Majesty and Honor, You are greatly blessed.)
Hadith 1840
عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ النَّخْعِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا يَسْأَلُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍ عَنِ انْصِرَافِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ كَانَ يَنْصَرِفُ أَوْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ؟ قَالَ: فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْصَرِفُ حَيْثُ أَرَادَ، كَانَ أَكْثَرُ انْصِرَافِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ عَلَى شِقِّهِ الْأَيْسَرِ إِلَى حُجْرَتِهِ (وَفِي لَفْظٍ) كَانَ عَامَّةَ مَا يَنْصَرِفُ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى يَسَارِهِ إِلَى الْحُجُرَاتِ
Aswad Nakhai says: I heard a man asking Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) about the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) turning after his prayer—did he turn to the right or to the left? He replied: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would turn whichever way he wished, but most often he would turn to his left, towards his chamber. In another narration it is stated: Generally, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would turn to the left, towards the chambers, after the prayer.
Hadith 1841
(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) قَالَ: لَا يَجْعَلْ أَحَدُكُمْ لِلشَّيْطَانِ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ جُزْءًا لَا يَرَى إِلَّا أَنَّ حَقًّا عَلَيْهِ أَنْ لَا يَنْصَرِفَ إِلَّا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَإِنَّ أَكْثَرَ انْصِرَافِهِ لَعَلَى يَسَارِهِ
(Second chain) Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: No person should make any part of himself for Satan, such that he begins to think that he has the right to turn only to the right side during prayer, whereas I have seen the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that his turning was mostly to the left side.
Hadith 1842
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي قَائِمًا وَقَاعِدًا وَحَافِيًا وَمُنْتَعِلًا (زَادَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ) وَيَنْفَتِلُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَيَسَارِهِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray standing, sitting, barefoot, and wearing shoes—in all manners. In one narration it is mentioned: And after the prayer, he would turn to both the right and the left sides.
Hadith 1843
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
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performing prayer, he (peace be upon him) would turn to both the right and the left sides, and I saw that he prayed both while wearing shoes and barefoot, and I also saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) drinking water both while standing and sitting.
Hadith 1844
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: انْصَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) turned to his right side after the prayer.
