323 Chapter: Permission to Turn in Prayer Due to an Emergency.
Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah 870 — 323 Chapter: Permission to Turn in Prayer
قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : فِي خَبَرِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ " لا يَلْتَفِتُ فِي صَلاتِهِ ، فَلَمَّا أَكْثَرَ النَّاسُ التَّصْفِيقَ الْتَفَتَ ، " فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الصَّفِّ ، فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ هَكَذَا ، يَأْمُرُهُ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ " قَدْ أَمْلَيْتُهُ قَبْلُ بِطُولِهِ
In the narration of Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him), it is mentioned that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) would not look here and there during the prayer. Then, when the people clapped excessively, he turned his attention and saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) seated in the row. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) signaled to him to continue the prayer. I have already mentioned this narration in full before.
