Sahih

سُتْرَةُ الإِمَامِ سُتْرَةُ مَنْ خَلْفَهُ

The sutrah (barrier in front of the one praying) of the imam is the sutrah of those behind him

أَقْبَلْتُ رَاكِبًا عَلَى حِمَارٍ أَتَانٍ، وَأَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ قَدْ نَاهَزْتُ الاِحْتِلاَمَ، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ بِمِنًى إِلَى غَيْرِ جِدَارٍ، فَمَرَرْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَىْ بَعْضِ الصَّفِّ، فَنَزَلْتُ وَأَرْسَلْتُ الأَتَانَ تَرْتَعُ، وَدَخَلْتُ فِي الصَّفِّ، فَلَمْ يُنْكِرْ ذَلِكَ عَلَىَّ أَحَدٌ.

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ

Translation

Ibn Abbas reported: I came riding on a female donkey, and at that time I had nearly reached puberty, while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was leading the people in prayer at Mina with no wall in front of him. I passed in front of part of the row, then dismounted, let the donkey loose to graze, and joined the row, and no one objected to that.

Ibn Abbas berichtete: Ich kam auf einer Eselin geritten, und ich hatte damals schon fast die Geschlechtsreife erreicht, während der Gesandte Allahs ﷺ in Mina die Leute im Gebet leitete, ohne eine Wand vor sich. Ich ritt vor einem Teil der Reihe vorbei, stieg dann ab, ließ die Eselin weiden gehen und trat in die Reihe ein, und niemand tadelte mich dafür.

Türkçe

İbn Abbâs (r.a.) şöyle rivayet etti: Bir dişi eşeğe binmiş olarak geldim; o gün ergenlik çağına yaklaşmıştım. Resûlullah ﷺ Mina'da önünde bir duvar olmaksızın insanlara namaz kıldırıyordu. Safın bir kısmının önünden geçtim, sonra indim, eşeği otlaması için saldım ve safa girdim; bu yaptığım bana kimse tarafından kınanmadı.
