Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Ahmad 7615 — Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، وَالثَّوْرِيُّ ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرِو بْنِ حُرَيْثٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، رَفَعَهُ ، قَالَ : " إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ ، فَلْيُصَلِّ إِلَى شَيْءٍ ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ شَيْءٌ فَعَصًا ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ عَصًا ، فَلْيَخْطُطْ خَطًّا ، ثُمَّ لَا يَضُرُّهُ مَا مَرَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) in a marfu’ form that when any one of you intends to pray, he should place something in front of him (as a sutrah). If he does not find anything, then he should stand a staff upright, and if there is not even a staff, then he should draw a line. After that, whatever passes in front of him, it does not matter.
