Chapter 8 · Prayers (Salat)سُتْرَةُ الإِمَامِ سُتْرَةُ مَنْ خَلْفَهُ
The sutrah (barrier in front of the one praying) of the imam is the sutrah of those behind him
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ إِذَا خَرَجَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ أَمَرَ بِالْحَرْبَةِ فَتُوضَعُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، فَيُصَلِّي إِلَيْهَا وَالنَّاسُ وَرَاءَهُ، وَكَانَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي السَّفَرِ، فَمِنْ ثَمَّ اتَّخَذَهَا الأُمَرَاءُ.

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ،
Translation
Ibn Umar reported that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out on the day of Eid, he would order the spear (to be brought); it would be placed in front of him, and he would pray towards it with the people behind him. He used to do that on journeys too, and it is from that that the rulers adopted it.

Ibn Umar berichtete, dass der Gesandte Allahs ﷺ, wenn er am Festtag hinausging, befahl, den Speer (mitzunehmen); er wurde vor ihm hingestellt, und er betete zu ihm hin, während die Leute hinter ihm waren. Das tat er auch auf Reisen, und von daher haben die Befehlshaber ihn übernommen.

İbn Ömer (r.a.), Resûlullah'ın ﷺ bayram günü çıktığında harbenin (getirilmesini) emrettiğini rivayet etti; harbe önüne konulur, o da ona doğru namaz kılar, insanlar da arkasında olurdu. Bunu yolculukta da yapardı. Emîrler de onu buradan edinmişlerdir.
Translator’s note: Harbe: kısa mızrak.
