بَابُ النَّظَرِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ إِلَى مَا يَشْغَلُكَ عَنْهَاChapter on Looking at What Distracts You in Prayer
Hadith 219
وَحَدَّثَنِي ، مَالِك ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، أَنَّ أَبَا طَلْحَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ كَانَ يُصَلِّي فِي حَائِطِهِ ، فَطَارَ دُبْسِيٌّ فَطَفِقَ يَتَرَدَّدُ يَلْتَمِسُ مَخْرَجًا ، فَأَعْجَبَهُ ذَلِكَ فَجَعَلَ يُتْبِعُهُ بَصَرَهُ سَاعَةً ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى صَلَاتِهِ ، فَإِذَا هُوَ لَا يَدْرِي كَمْ صَلَّى ، فَقَالَ : " لَقَدْ أَصَابَتْنِي فِي مَالِي هَذَا فِتْنَةٌ فَجَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرَ لَهُ الَّذِي أَصَابَهُ فِي حَائِطِهِ مِنَ الْفِتْنَةِ ، وَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، هُوَ صَدَقَةٌ لِلَّهِ فَضَعْهُ حَيْثُ شِئْتَ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abi Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, that Sayyiduna Abu Talha Ansari, may Allah be pleased with him, was praying in his garden when a bird flew in and began searching for a way out of the garden, because the garden was so dense and the trees were so closely joined together that the bird could not find a way to escape. This sight pleased him greatly, and seeing the state of his garden, he became very happy, so he kept looking at it for a while. Then he remembered his prayer and forgot how many rak‘ahs he had performed. At that moment, he said that Allah Almighty has tested me with this wealth. So he went to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and related the entire incident that had happened in the garden, and said: O Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him! I give this garden as charity for the sake of Allah, the Lord of Might and Majesty, so spend it wherever you wish.
