“We used to perform prayer while the beasts were passing in front of us. That was mentioned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said: ‘If something like the hand of a saddle* is placed in front of anyone of you, it will not matter whoever passes in front of him.” * It is the piece of wood on the camel saddle which is held on to (to climb onto the camel).

ابن ماجة:٩٤٠حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي وَالدَّوَابُّ تَمُرُّ بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مِثْلُ مُؤْخِرَةِ الرَّحْلِ تَكُونُ بَيْنَ يَدَىْ أَحَدِكُمْ فَلاَ يَضُرُّهُ مَنْ مَرَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: When one of you places in front of him so me. thing such as the back of a saddle, he should pray without caring who passes on the other side of it.

مسلم:٤٩٩أحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا وَقَالَ الآخَرَانِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا وَضَعَ أَحَدُكُمْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِثْلَ مُؤْخِرَةِ الرَّحْلِ فَلْيُصَلِّ وَلاَ يُبَالِ مَنْ مَرَّ وَرَاءَ ذَلِكَ

We used to say prayer and the animals moved in front of us. We mentioned it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said: If anything equal to the back of a saddle is in front of you, then what walks in front, no harm would come to him. Ibn Numair said: No harm would come whosoever walks in front.

مسلم:٤٩٩بوَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ أَخْبَرَنَا وَقَالَ ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الطَّنَافِسِيُّ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

abudawud:685Muḥammad b. Kathīr al-ʿAbdī > Isrāʾīl > Simāk > Mūsá b. Ṭalḥah > Abīh Ṭalḥah b. ʿUbaydullāh

When you place in front of you something such as the back of a saddle, then there is no harm if someone passes in front of you (i.e. the other side of it).

أبو داود:٦٨٥حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا جَعَلْتَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ مِثْلَ مُؤَخَّرَةِ الرَّحْلِ فَلاَ يَضُرُّكَ مَنْ مَرَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ

ahmad:1388ʿUmar b. ʿUbayd > Simāk b. Ḥarb > Mūsá b. Ṭalḥah from his father

We used to pray with animals passing in front of us. We mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ and he said: “If you put something the height of the back of a saddle in front of you, then it will not matter what passes beyond it.”

أحمد:١٣٨٨حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي وَالدَّوَابُّ تَمُرُّ بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ مِثْلُ مُؤْخِرَةِ الرَّحْلِ تَكُونُ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ أحَدِكُمْ ثُمَّ لَا يَضُرُّهُ مَا مَرَّ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ عُمَرُ مَرَّةً بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ

ahmad:1398ʿAbd al-Raḥman > Zāʾidah > Simāk b. Ḥarb > Mūsá b. Ṭalḥah from his father

“Let one of you put something in front of him the height of the back of a saddle, then pray.ʿ

أحمد:١٣٩٨حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ زَائِدَةَ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ يَجْعَلُ أَحَدُكُمْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِثْلَ مُؤْخِرَةِ الرَّحْلِ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي

ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ السُّتْرَةَ تَمْنَعُ مِنْ قَطْعِ الصَّلَاةِ لِلْمُصَلِّي، وَإِنْ مَرَّ مِنْ دُونِهَا الْحِمَارُ وَالْكَلْبُ وَالْمَرْأَةُ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: When one of you places in front of him so me. thing such as the back of a saddle, he should pray without caring who passes on the other side of it. (Using translation from Muslim 499a)

ابن حبّان:٢٣٧٩أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْجُنَيْدِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

“We used to perform prayer while the beasts were passing in front of us. That was mentioned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said: ‘If something like the hand of a saddle* is placed in front of anyone of you, it will not matter whoever passes in front of him.” * It is the piece of wood on the camel saddle which is held on to (to climb onto the camel). (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 940)

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي وَالدَّوَابُّ تَمُرُّ بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا فَسَأَلْنَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «مِثْلُ آخِرَةِ الرَّحْلِ يَكُونُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ أَحَدِكُمْ فَلَا يَضُرُّهُ مَا مَرَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ»

[AI] We were praying and the animals were passing in front of us, so we mentioned it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said, "The rear end of the saddle should be in front of one of you, and what passes in front of him will not harm him."

البيهقي:٣٤٥٦وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو صَالِحٍ أنبأ جَدِّي يَحْيَى بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ الْقَاضِي ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أنبأ عُمَرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ثنا سِمَاكُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي وَالدَّوَابُّ تَمُرُّ بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مِثْلُ مُؤَخِّرَةِ الرَّحْلِ يَكُونُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ أَحَدِكُمْ ثُمَّ لَا يَضُرُّهُ مَا مَرَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ
