Hadith 4841

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَأَى نُخَامَةً فِي قِبْلَةِ الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَحَتَّهَا ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ ، فَقَالَ : " إِذَا كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَلَا يَتَنَخَّمْ قِبَلَ وَجْهِهِ ، فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى قِبَلَ وَجْهِ أَحَدِكُمْ إِذَا كَانَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw phlegm stuck towards the qiblah in the mosque. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and cleaned it, then turned towards the people and said: "When any one of you is in prayer, Allah is in front of his face, so none of you should clean his nose in front of his face during his prayer."
