Sahih al-Bukhari 496

8 Prayers (Salat)

كتاب الصلاة

(91) Chapter: What should be the distance between the person offering Salat (prayer) and the Sutra?

باب قَدْرِ كَمْ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَكُونَ بَيْنَ الْمُصَلِّي وَالسُّتْرَةِ

Narrated Sahl (bin Sa`d):

The distance between the Musalla of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and the wall was just sufficient for a sheep to pass through .

حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ زُرَارَةَ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ سَهْلٍ، قَالَ كَانَ بَيْنَ مُصَلَّى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَبَيْنَ الْجِدَارِ مَمَرُّ الشَّاةِ‏.‏
