[Machine] Abdullah ibn Abbas reported that the Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, everything has its honor, and the most honorable of gatherings is the one that is faced with the qibla (direction of prayer). Do not pray behind someone who is asleep or engaged in conversation. Kill the snake and scorpion, even if you are in the middle of prayer. Do not cover the podium with a garment." This hadith was also narrated by Hisham ibn Ziyad, from Muhammad ibn Ka'b, and it was narrated from another source, but the chain of narration is disconnected from Muhammad ibn Ka'b, and there is no established chain of narration for that.  

حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَرْفَعُ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَرَفًا وَأَشْرَفُ الْمَجَالِسِ مَا اسْتُقْبِلَ بِهِ الْقِبْلَةَ لَا تُصَلُّوا خَلْفَ نَائِمٍ وَلَا مُتَحَدِّثٍ وَاقْتُلُوا الْحَيَّةَ وَالْعَقْرَبَ وَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ فِي صَلَاتِكُمْ وَلَا تَسْتُرُوا الْجُدُرَ بِالثَّوْبِ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَرُوِيَ ذَلِكَ أَيْضًا عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ أَبِي الْمِقْدَامِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ مُنْقَطِعٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ وَلَمْ يَثْبُتْ فِي ذَلِكَ إِسْنَادٌ
