Silsilah as-Sahihah 690 — Ensuring a barrier during prayer

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jubair bin Mut’im (may Allah be pleased with him), he says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “When a person offers prayer with a sutrah (barrier) in front of him, he should stand close to it so that Satan does not pass between the worshipper and the sutrah.”
