Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Wasi’ bin Hibban narrates that I was performing prayer and Hazrat Abdullah bin Umar was sitting leaning against the wall of the qiblah. After completing my prayer, I turned to my left side, so he said to me, “Why did you not turn to your right side?” I replied, “No, I saw you, so I got up and came towards you.” He said, “You did right. Some people say that you must get up to your right side (consider it necessary). When you have completed your prayer, if you wish, turn to your right side, and if you wish, turn to your left side.”
