It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When one of you takes off his sandals in prayer, let him not place them in front of himself so that he ends up praying facing them, nor behind himself so that his Muslim brother ends up praying facing them; rather, let him place them between his feet."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from al-Jassas except Abu Sa'id al-Shaqari; Ali bin al-Ja'd is alone in narrating it, and this hadith is narrated from Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain."
