Hadith 1002
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَخْزَمَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَأَبُو قُتَيْبَةَ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : " كُنَّا نُنْهَى أَنْ نَصُفَّ بَيْنَ السَّوَارِي عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنُطْرَدُ عَنْهَا طَرْدًا " .
´It was narrated from Mu’awiyah bin Qurrah that his father said:` “We were forbidden to form a row between two pillars at the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and we would be repelled from them forcefully.”
Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefit:
If, during congregational prayer, a pillar comes between the rows, the row is considered broken.
Therefore, this has been prohibited.
If there is no congregation taking place, then there is no harm in standing between the pillars, because at that time, the people standing there will not be considered as forming a row.
The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) performed prayer between two pillars inside the Sacred Ka‘bah.
See: (Sahih al-Bukhari, The Book of Prayer, Chapter: The Doors and Locks of the Ka‘bah and Mosques, Hadith: 468)
