Chapter 2 · Prayer (Kitab Al-Salat)سُتْرَةُ الإِمَامِ سُتْرَةُ مَنْ خَلْفَهُ
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ الْغَازِ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ: هَبَطْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ ثَنِيَّةِ أَذَاخِرَ فَحَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ يَعْنِي فَصَلَّى إِلَى جِدَارٍ، فَاتَّخَذَهُ قِبْلَةً وَنَحْنُ خَلْفَهُ، فَجَاءَتْ بَهْمَةٌ تَمُرُّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَمَا زَالَ يُدَارِئُهَا حَتَّى لَصَقَ بَطْنَهُ بِالْجِدَارِ وَمَرَّتْ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ ، أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ.

The Sutrah Of The Imam Acts As A Sutrah For Those behind Him
We came down from the mountain pass of Adhaakhir in the company of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم. The time of prayer came and he prayed facing a direction of prayer, and we were (standing) behind him. Then a kid came and passed in front of him. He kept on stopping it until he brought his stomach near the wall (to detain it), and at last it passed behind him, or as Musaddad said.
