“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade performing prayer behind one who is engaged in conversation or one who is sleeping.”

ابن ماجة:٩٥٩ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الْمِقْدَامِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يُصَلَّى خَلْفَ الْمُتَحَدِّثِ وَالنَّائِمِ
