Ibn Khuzaymah
جماع أبواب الأفعال المباحة فى الصلاة
Chapters on Permissible Acts in Prayer
(326) بَابُ إِبَاحَةِ الْتِفَاتِ الْمُصَلِّي فِي الصَّلَاةِ عِنْدَ إِرَادَةِ تَعْلِيمِ الْمُصَلِّينَ بِالْإِشَارَةِ إِلَيْهِمْ بِمَا يَفْهَمُونَ عَنْهُ،
326 Chapter: Permissibility of Turning in Prayer to Teach Others by Gesturing.
Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah 873 — 326 Chapter: Permissibility of Turning
وَفِيهِ مَا دَلَّ عَلَى أَنَّ إِشَارَةَ الْمُصَلِّي بِمَا يُفْهَمُ عَنْهُ غَيْرُ مُفْسِدَةٍ صَلَاتَهُ
And in this is evidence that a gesture by the one praying, which people understand, does not invalidate or corrupt the prayer.
نَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْمُرَادِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبٌ ، نَا اللَّيْثُ ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : " اشْتَكَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَصَلَّيْنَا وَرَاءَهُ ، وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ ، فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْنَا فَرَآنَا قِيَامًا فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْنَا ، فَقَعَدْنَا "
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) became ill, and we performed prayer behind him while he was leading the prayer sitting. When he turned towards us, he saw us standing, so he gestured to us (to sit), and thus we sat down.
