2.118 The Sutrah Of The Imam Acts As A Sutrah For Those behind Him

٢۔١١٨ باب سُتْرَةُ الإِمَامِ سُتْرَةُ مَنْ خَلْفَهُ

abudawud:708Musaddad > ʿĪsá b. Yūnus > Hishām b. al-Ghāz > ʿAmr b. Shuʿayb from his father from his grandfather

We came down from the mountain pass of Adhaakhir in the company of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The time of prayer came and he prayed facing a direction of prayer, and we were (standing) behind him. Then a kid came and passed in front of him. He kept on stopping it until he brought his stomach near the wall (to detain it), and at last it passed behind him, or as Musaddad said.  

أبو داود:٧٠٨حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ الْغَازِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ

هَبَطْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ ثَنِيَّةِ أَذَاخِرَ فَحَضَرَتِ الصَّلاَةُ يَعْنِي فَصَلَّى إِلَى جِدَارٍ فَاتَّخَذَهُ قِبْلَةً وَنَحْنُ خَلْفَهُ فَجَاءَتْ بَهْمَةٌ تَمُرُّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَمَا زَالَ يُدَارِئُهَا حَتَّى لَصِقَ بَطْنُهُ بِالْجِدَارِ وَمَرَّتْ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ  

abudawud:709Sulaymān b. Ḥarb And Ḥafṣ b. ʿUmar > Shuʿbah > ʿAmr b. Murrah > Yaḥyá b. al-Jazzār > Ibn ʿAbbās

The Prophet ﷺ was (once) praying. A kid went passing in front of him and he kept on stopping it.  

أبو داود:٧٠٩حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ وَحَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ الْجَزَّارِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يُصَلِّي فَذَهَبَ جَدْىٌ يَمُرُّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَجَعَلَ يَتَّقِيهِ
