[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When you pray, do not spit to your right or left, nor in front of you. If you have to spit, do so behind you and to your left, if there is nothing there.

أحمد:٢٧٢٢١ – حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ رِبْعِيٍّ عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْمُحَارِبِيِّ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ فَلَا تَبْصُقْ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ وَلَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ وَابْصُقْ خَلْفَكَ وَعَنْ شِمَالِكَ إِنْ كَانَ فَارِغًا وَإِلَّا فَهَكَذَا وَدَلَكَ تَحْتَ قَدَمِهِ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ وَكِيعٌ وَلَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ وَابْصُقْ خَلْفَكَ وَقَالَا قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ
