Miscellaneous Issues of Prayer
The worshipper should not spit in front of him
Muwatta Malik (Qasim) 193 — The worshipper should not spit in front
205- وبه: أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم رأى بصاقا فى جدار القبلة فحكه: ثم أقبل على الناس فقال: ”إذا كان أحدكم يصلي فلا يبصق قبل وجهه فإن الله قبل وجهه إذا صلى.“
And with the same chain of narration (from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both), it is narrated that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, saw spit on the wall facing the qiblah, so he scraped it off (and cleaned it), then turned towards the people and said: "When any one of you prays, he should not spit in front of himself, because when he prays, Allah is in front of him."
