Bayhaqi 3330 — What to say when something happens in one's prayer

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْأَدِيبُ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْإِسْمَاعِيلِيُّ، ثنا جَعْفَرٌ الْفِرْيَابِيُّ، ثنا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ بَنِي عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ كَانَ بَيْنَهُمْ شَيْءٌ، فَخَرَجَ يُصْلِحُ بَيْنَهُمْ، وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى أَنْ قَالَ: فَقَالَ: " يَأَيُّهَا النَّاسُ مَا لَكُمْ إِذَا نَابَكُمْ شَيْءٌ فِي الصَّلَاةِ أَخَذْتُمْ فِي التَّصْفِيقِ إِنَّمَا التَّصْفِيقُ لِلنِّسَاءِ مَنْ نَابَهُ شَيْءٌ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَلْيَقُلْ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَسْمَعُهُ أَحَدٌ حِينَ يَقُولُ: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ إِلَّا الْتَفَتَ " رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ وَمُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ قُتَيْبَةَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، وَأَخْرَجَاهُ أَيْضًا.
(a) Sahl bin Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) learned that there had been some dispute among Banu Amr bin Awf, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) went out to make peace between them. Then he mentioned the complete hadith, in which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O people, what is the matter with you that when something happens to you in prayer you start clapping? Clapping is only for women. If something happens in prayer, say 'Subhan Allah' (Glory be to Allah). When someone says 'Subhan Allah', whoever hears it will surely pay attention."
(b) In the narration of Bukhari and Muslim through another chain, the word tasfih is used in place of tasfiq, and Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) said: tasfih is the same as tasfiq (clapping).
