(88) بَابُ التَّغْلِيظِ فِي النَّظَرِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ.Chapter 88: Warning against looking up to the sky in prayer
Hadith 475
نا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى الصَّنْعَانِيُّ ، نا يَزِيدُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زُرَيْعٍ ، نا سَعِيدٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " مَا بَالُ أَقْوَامٍ يَرْفَعُونَ أَبْصَارَهُمْ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فِي صَلاتِهِمْ " ، فَاشْتَدَّ قَوْلُهُ فِي ذَلِكَ ، حَتَّى قَالَ : " لَيَنْتَهُنَّ عَنْ ذَلِكَ أَوْ لَتُخْطَفَنَّ أَبْصَارُهُمْ "
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: "What is wrong with people that they raise their eyes towards the sky during prayer?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) gave a very stern warning about this until he said: "They must stop, or else their eyes will surely be snatched away."
