Chapter on the Permissibility of Killing the Two Black Things in Prayer, Walking a Little, and Turning for Need
Hadith 1950
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَرَ بِقَتْلِ الْأَسْوَدَيْنِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ، الْعَقْرَبِ وَالْحَيَّةِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, commanded the killing of two black things: the scorpion and the snake.
Hadith 1951
عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي فِي الْبَيْتِ وَالْبَابُ عَلَيْهِ مُغْلَقٌ فَجِئْتُ فَمَشَى حَتَّى فَتَحَ لِي ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى مَقَامِهِ، وَوَصَفَتْ أَنَّ الْبَابَ فِي الْقِبْلَةِ
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would be praying at home and the door would be closed. Then when I would come, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would walk forward, open the door for me, and return to his place. Then she stated that the door was in the direction of the Qiblah.
Hadith 1952
(وَعَنْهَا مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) قَالَتْ: اسْتَفْتَحْتُ الْبَابَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي فَمَشَى فِي الْقِبْلَةِ إِمَّا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَإِمَّا عَنْ يَسَارِهِ حَتَّى فَتَحَ لِي ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى مُصَلَّاهُ
(Second chain) She says: I knocked at the door while the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was praying. So he moved to the right side or to the left side towards the Qiblah, until he opened the door for me. Then the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, returned to his prayer mat.
Hadith 1953
عَنِ الْأَزْرَقِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَالَ: كَانَ أَبُو بَرْزَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيُّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ بِالْأَهْوَازِ عَلَى حَرْفِ نَهْرٍ وَقَدْ جَعَلَ اللِّجَامَ فِي يَدِهِ وَجَعَلَ يُصَلِّي، فَجَعَلَتِ الدَّابَّةُ تَنْكُصُ وَجَعَلَ يَتَأَخَّرُ مَعَهَا، فَجَعَلَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْخَوَارِجِ يَقُولُ: اللَّهُمَّ اخْزِ هَٰذَا الشَّيْخَ كَيْفَ يُصَلِّي؟ قَالَ: فَلَمَّا صَلَّى قَالَ: قَدْ سَمِعْتُ مَقَالَتَكُمْ، غَزَوْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ سِتًّا أَوْ سَبْعًا أَوْ ثَمَانِيَةً فَشَهِدْتُ أَمْرَهُ وَتَيْسِيرَهُ، فَكَانَ رُجُوعِي مَعَ دَابَّتِي أَهْوَنَ عَلَيَّ مِنْ تَرْكِهَا فَتَنْزِعُ إِلَى مَأْلَفِهَا فَيَشُقُّ عَلَيَّ، وَصَلَّى أَبُو بَرْزَةَ الْعَصْرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ
Azraq bin Qais says: Sayyiduna Abu Barzah Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him) was at the place of Ahwaz on the bank of a river. He took the reins of his mount in his hand and started the prayer. Meanwhile, the mount began to move backward and he also started moving backward with it. A Khariji man saw this scene and said: O Allah! Humiliate this old man, how is he performing the prayer? When he finished the prayer, he said: I have heard what you said. (The reality is that) I have participated in six or seven or eight expeditions with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I have observed his dealings and his leniency, (from which I have deduced that) my moving backward with the mount during the prayer is lighter than if I had left it and it had gone towards its pasture, and that would have caused me hardship. Sayyiduna Abu Barzah (may Allah be pleased with him) had performed two rak‘ahs of the ‘Asr prayer.
Hadith 1954
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي يَلْتَفِتُ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالًا وَلَا يَلْوِي عُنُقَهُ خَلْفَ ظَهْرِهِ
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would glance to the right and left during prayer, but he would not turn his neck towards his back.
Hadith 1955
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي حِنْدٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ عِكْرِمَةَ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَلْحَظُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَلْوِيَ عُنُقَهُ
A student of Ikrimah narrates that Hazrat Ikrimah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to look here and there in prayer without turning his neck.
Hadith 1956
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَسْتَشْرِفُ لِشَيْءٍ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ، يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ
Anas bin Sirin (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I saw Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) raise his gaze towards something while he was in prayer, and he would look at it.
