bukhari:405Qutaybah > Ismāʿīl b. Jaʿfar > Ḥumayd > Anas

The Prophet ﷺ saw some sputum in the direction of the Qibla (on the wall of the mosque) and he disliked that and the sign of disgust was apparent from his face. So he got up and scraped it off with his hand and said, "Whenever anyone of you stands for the prayer, he is speaking in private to his Lord or his Lord is between him and his Qibla. So, none of you should spit in the direction of the Qibla but one can spit to the left or under his foot." The Prophet ﷺ then took the corner of his sheet and spat in it and folded it and said, "Or you can do this. "

abudawud:1332al-Ḥasan b. ʿAlī > ʿAbd al-Razzāq > Maʿmar > Ismāʿīl b. Umayyah > Abū Salamah > Abū Saʿīd

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did i'tikaf (performed spiritual retreat) in the masjid. He heard them reciting ˹the Quran˺ loudly. He removed the curtain and said: "Every one of you is in a private conversation with his Lord. so do not disturb each other while raising their voices in recitation" or said, "in prayer."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from Muhammad ibn Ibrahim ibn al Harith at-Taymi from Abu Hazim at-Tammar from al Bayadi that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out to the people while they were praying and their voices were raised in the recitation. He said, "When you pray you are talking confidentially to your Lord. So look to what you confide to Him, and do not say the Qur'an out loud so that others hear it."

[Machine] "He saw a stain in the direction of the prayer niche in the mosque, so he poked at it until we recognized it on his face. He scratched it and said, 'When one of you stands up for prayer, they are conversing with their Lord, or their Lord is conversing with them between them and the prayer niche. Let them spit if they happen to spit to their left or under their foot.' He gestured as if it were on his garment. He said, 'We used to say to Humaid, and he would say, "Glory be to Allah, who is he referring to?" meaning the Prophet ﷺ , and he would not give us any more explanation.'"

So let him know what he is conversing with Him about, and let no one raise his voice over another.'"

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with a stone in his hand, using it to clean his nose. He saw a person facing the Qibla while doing this and said, "When any one of you prays, he should not blow his nose with the hand he is facing, for indeed when a servant prays, he stands in private conversation with his Lord, the Elevated." Muhammad ﷺ said, "His face."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ observed Itikaf in the last ten days of Ramadan and had a house made of palm leaves for himself. One day, he put his head out and said, "Surely, the one who is in prayer is having a private conversation with his Lord, so let each of you take care about what he says to his Lord and not raise his voice against each other with recitation."

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ retired to the mosque. He heard them (the people) reciting the Qur'an in a loud voice. He removed the curtain and said: Lo! every one of you is calling his Lord quietly. One should not trouble the other and one should not raise the voice in recitation or in prayer over the voice of the other. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1332)

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "When one of you is in prayer, he is conversing with his Lord, so none of you should spit to his right." Ibn Ja'far said, "Nor should he spit in front of him nor to his right, but rather to his left or under his feet."

ahmad:4877Yazīd > Muḥammad > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw a small mucus in the direction of the qibla, so he took a stick or a pebble and rubbed it with it. Then he said, "When any of you stands to pray, do not spit in his direction of the qibla, for he is conversing with his Lord, exalted and glorified."

ahmad:4908ʿAbd al-Razzāq > Ibn Abū Rawwād > Nāfiʿʿan Ibn ʿUmar

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed in the mosque and saw some traces of dung in the direction of the qibla. When he had finished his prayer, he said: "Verily, when one of you prays in the mosque, he is conversing privately with his Lord, and Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, faces him with His countenance. So no one should spit towards the qibla or to his right." Then he called for a stick and scraped it off, and then he called for a piece of cloth and wiped it.

That the Prophet ﷺ did iʿtikāf (performed spiritual retreat) and gave a sermon to the people, saying: "Verily, when one of you stands in prayer, he is privately conversing with his Lord, so let each one of you know what he is privately conversing with his Lord, and let no one of you make his recitation in prayer loud to one another."

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , he said, "If one of you knew his reward for walking between the hands of his brother while he is engaged in private conversation with his Lord, he would prefer to remain in that place for a hundred years rather than take a single step."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out to the people while they were praying, and their voices were raised in recitation. He said, "Verily, the one who is praying is holding a private conversation with his Lord, so let him look at what he is conversing with him and not raise his voice with the Quran, one over the other."

darimi:1436Yazīd b. Hārūn > Ḥumayd > Anas

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When a person prays, they are having a private conversation with their Lord, or their Lord is addressing them directly between them and the qibla (direction of prayer). So when one of you spits, let them spit to their left or under their foot, or say, 'Like this' and spit on their garment and rub it with some of it on the other."

He said, "Verily, the one who is in prayer is having a confidential conversation with his Lord, so let each one of you see what he converses with his Lord in, and do not compete with one another in recitation of the Quran."

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ retired to the mosque. He heard them (the people) reciting the Qur'an in a loud voice. He removed the curtain and said: Lo! every one of you is calling his Lord quietly. One should not trouble the other and one should not raise the voice in recitation or in prayer over the voice of the other. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1332)

[Machine] He heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , while he was sitting in the mosque one day, preaching to the people, admonishing them, and encouraging them. Then he said, "There is no one who prays except that he is conversing with his Lord, so none of you should raise his voice over another with the recitation of the Qur'an." [387] 3347 Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Abdul-Hakam informed us from Shuayb from Layth who said: Ibn al-Had informed us from Muhammad ibn Ibrahim from Ata bin Yasar from a man from the Ansar from Bani Bayadah that he heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , and he mentioned a similar narration. 3348 Muhammad ibn Abdullah informed us from Shuayb who said: Layth informed us who said: Ibn al-Had informed us from Muhammad ibn Ibrahim from Abu Hazim, the freed slave of Ghifar, that he narrated this hadith from Al-Bayadi from the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ . Abu Abdur-Rahman contradicted him and narrated it from his master, Sa'id.

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ saw mucus in the direction of the qibla (the direction of prayer) and disliked it until it was visible on his face. He then wiped it off and said, "Indeed, when one of you stands in prayer, he is actually conversing with his Lord, or his Lord is speaking to him in between himself and the qibla. Therefore, let him spit to his left or beneath his foot. Then he took hold of the corner of his garment, spat into it, brought some of it back to the other part, and said, "Or let him do like this."

The Prophet ﷺ saw some sputum in the direction of the Qibla (on the wall of the mosque) and he disliked that and the sign of disgust was apparent from his face. So he got up and scraped it off with his hand and said, "Whenever anyone of you stands for the prayer, he is speaking in private to his Lord or his Lord is between him and his Qibla. So, none of you should spit in the direction of the Qibla but one can spit to the left or under his foot." The Prophet ﷺ then took the corner of his sheet and spat in it and folded it and said, "Or you can do this. " (Using translation from Bukhārī 405)

"إِنَّ أحَدَكُم إِذَا قامَ في صَلاته فَإِنَّهُ يُنَاجى رَبَّه، وإِن ربَّهُ بينَه وبينَ القِبْلَةِ فلا يَبْزُقَنَّ أحَدُكم قِبَلَ قِبْلته، وَلَكِنْ عن يَسَارِه، أَو تَحْتَ قَدَمِه".
