Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When any of you takes off his sandals while offering prayer, he should not take them off and place them on his right side, otherwise he will be sinful; nor should he place them behind him, otherwise he will make his companion sinful through them. He should take them off and place them between his knees."
Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir; its chain contains a narrator, Ziyad al-Jassas, whom Yahya bin Ma'in, Ibn al-Madini and others declared da'if (weak). Ibn Hibban mentioned him in the book al-Thiqat.
