Chapter 2 · Prayer (Kitab Al-Salat)حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، عَنْ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ ثَابِتِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ صَاحِبِ الْمَقْصُورَةِ، قَالَ: صَلَّيْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ يَوْمًا، فَقَالَ: هَلْ تَدْرِي لِمَ صُنِعَ هَذَا الْعُودُ ؟ فَقُلْتُ: لَا وَاللَّهِ، قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَضَعُ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهِ، فَيَقُولُ: اسْتَوُوا وَعَدِّلُوا صُفُوفَكُمْ .

One day I prayed by the side of Anas bin Malik. He said; Do you know why this stick is placed here ? I said: No, by Allah. He said; The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم used to put his hand upon it and say: Keep straight and straighten your rows.
