أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَفَّانَ، ثنا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ (ح) وَأَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ، أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ غَالِبٍ، ثنا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، ثنا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: " لَا يَجْعَلْ أَحَدُكُمْ لِلشَّيْطَانِ نَصِيبًا مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ يَرَى أَنَّ حَقًّا عَلَيْهِ أَنْ لَا يَنْصَرِفَ إِلَّا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَكْثَرَ مَا يَنْصَرِفُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ " لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ شُعْبَةَ، وَفِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ: جَزَاءً بَدَلَ نَصِيبًا، وَقَالَ: عَنْ شِمَالِهِ. وَرَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ أَبِي الْوَلِيدِ، وَأَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ مِنْ أَوْجُهٍ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ.
(a) Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: None of you should leave any part of his prayer for Satan, that is, by turning away only to the right (rather, he should turn to the left as well).
I have seen the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) many times turning away to the left (too).
(b) These are the words of the hadith of Shu'bah (may Allah have mercy on him). In the hadith of Abu Usamah (may Allah have mercy on him), "juz'an" (a part) appears in place of "nasiban" (a share), and "'an shimalihi" appears in place of "'an yasarihi" (both meaning: to his left).

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو قَالَا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا أُسَيْدُ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ، ثنا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ قَالَ: قَالَ سُفْيَانُ وَحَدَّثَنَا سِمَاكُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ قَبِيصَةَ بْنِ هُلْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْصَرِفُ مَرَّةً عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَمَرَّةً عَنْ يَسَارِهِ وَيَضَعُ إِحْدَى يَدَيْهِ عَلَى الْأُخْرَى " قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ: فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ حَاجَةٌ فِي نَاحِيَةٍ وَكَانَ يَتَوَجَّهُ مَا شَاءَ أَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ تَوَجُّهُهُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ؛ لِمَا كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُحِبُّ مِنَ التَّيَامُنِ، غَيْرَ مَضَيَّقٍ عَلَيْهِ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَقَدْ مَضَى خَبَرُ عَائِشَةَ فِي اسْتِحْبَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ التَّيَامُنَ فِي شَأْنِهِ كُلِّهِ.
(a) Qabisah bin Hulb narrates from his father (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would sometimes turn away from the prayer to his right and sometimes to his left, and he would place one of his hands on the other.
(b) Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: If the one praying has no need in a particular direction and may turn whichever way he wishes, I prefer that he turn to his right, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) loved to favour the right; yet he is not put under any constraint in any of that.
(c) Imam al-Bayhaqi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The report of Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) has already passed, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) loved to favour the right in all his affairs.

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ دَاوُدَ الْعَلَوِيُّ أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ ⦗٤٢٠⦘ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ الشَّرْقِيِّ، أَخُو أَبِي حَامِدٍ ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ بِشْرِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ، ثنا أَبُو قُتَيْبَةَ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ السُّدِّيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: " كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْصَرِفُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ " أَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ وَكِيعٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ.

Al-Suddi said: I asked Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): When I have finished praying, which way should I turn, to my right or to my left? He said: I have mostly seen the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) turn to his right.
