حَدِيثُ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ السُّوَائِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
Hadith of Jabir bin Samurah al-Suwa'i, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 7473 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the mosque
وَعَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ، قَالَ: دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْمَسْجِدَ ، فَرَأَى نَاسًا يُصَلُّونَ رَافِعِي رُءُوسِهِمْ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، فَقَالَ: «لَيَنْتَهِيَنَّ رِجَالٌ يَشْخَصُونَ بِأَبْصَارِهِمْ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، أَوْ لَا تَرْجِعُ إِلَيْهِمْ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered the mosque and saw some people raising their heads towards the sky (while in prayer). On that he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "These people must stop raising their gaze towards the sky, or else their sight will not return (to them)."
