Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِذَا كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَلَا يَتْفُلْ أَمَامَهُ وَلَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ فَإِنَّهُ يُنَاجِي رَبَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَلَكِنْ لِيَتْفُلْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ أَوْ تَحْتَ قَدَمِهِ.
English Translation
Abd al-Wahhab told us, from Sa'id, from Qatada, from Anas ibn Malik, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: 'When one of you is in prayer, let him not spit in front of him or to his right, for he is confiding in his Lord, Mighty and Majestic; rather let him spit to his left or beneath his foot.'
