tabarani:10120Abū Muslim al-Kashhī And Yūsuf al-Qāḍī > ʿAmr b. Marzūq > Shuʿbah > ʿĀṣim > Abū Wāʾil > ʿAbdullāh

[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ while he was praying, so I greeted him, but he did not respond to me. When he finished his prayer, he said: "Verily, Allah informs His Prophet of what He wills, and one of the things He has informed me is to not speak during the prayer."  

الطبراني:١٠١٢٠حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُسْلِمٍ الْكَشِّيُّ وَيُوسُفُ الْقَاضِي قَالَا ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ أنا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ «إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يُحْدِثُ لِنَبِيِّهِ مَا شَاءَ وَإِنَّهُ مِمَّا أَحْدَثَ لَهُ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ»

ahmad:4145ʿAbd al-Raḥman > Zāʾidah > ʿĀṣim > Shaqīq > ʿAbdullāh

[Machine] "We used to speak during prayer, greet each other, and advise one another about our needs. So, I approached the Prophet ﷺ and greeted him while he was praying, but he did not respond to me. He seized my hand and prevented me from moving forward or speaking. After he finished the prayer, he said, 'Indeed, Allah, the Almighty, speaks and decrees whatever He wills, and He has commanded that no one should speak during the prayer.'"  

أحمد:٤١٤٥حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ شَقِيقٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

كُنَّا نَتَكَلَّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَيُسَلِّمُ بَعْضُنَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ وَيُوصِي أَحَدُنَا بِالْحَاجَةِ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يُحْدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا شَاءَ وَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أَحْدَثَ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ  

ahmad:4417Muḥammad b. Jaʿfar > Shuʿbah > ʿĀṣim Ibn Bahdalah > Abū Wāʾil > ʿAbdullāh

[Machine] We were talking during the prayer, so I approached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and greeted him, but he did not respond to me. He took hold of what had happened and what was said and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, Allah speaks to His Prophet according to His will." Shu'bah said, "I believe he said from what He wills," and indeed, from what was revealed to His Prophet ﷺ is that you should not speak during the prayer.  

أحمد:٤٤١٧حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ ابْنِ بَهْدَلَةَ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

كُنَّا نَتَكَلَّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ اللهَ يُحْدِثُ لِنَبِيِّهِ مَا شَاءَ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَأَحْسَبُهُ قَدْ قَالَ مِمَّا شَاءَ وَإِنَّ مِمَّا أَحْدَثَ لِنَبِيِّهِ ﷺ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ

[Machine] I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and greeted him, but he did not respond to me. He began to speak to me about what has passed and what will happen. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, is there something new?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, Allah informed His Prophet of His affairs as He wills, and one of the things He has informed is that you should not speak in prayer."  

البيهقي:٣٣٤٥حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ فُورَكٍ أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ثنا يُونُسُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَحَدَثَ شَيْءٌ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يُحْدِثُ لِنَبِيِّهِ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا شَاءَ وَإِنْ مِمَّا أَحْدَثَ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ
