حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَخْطُبُ يَوْمًا إِذْ رَأَى نُخَامَةً فِي قِبْلَةِ الْمَسْجِدِ فَتَغَيَّظَ عَلَى النَّاسِ ثُمَّ حَكَّهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَأَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَدَعَا بِزَعْفَرَانٍ فَلَطَّخَهُ بِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قِبَلَ وَجْهِ أَحَدِكُمْ إِذَا صَلَّى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَا يَبْزُقْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ رَوَاهُ إِسْمَاعِيلُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمَالِكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، نَحْوَ حَمَّادٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَذْكُرُوا الزَّعْفَرَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَرَوَاهُ مَعْمَرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَثْبَتَ الزَّعْفَرَانَ فِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَذَكَرَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ الْخَلُوقَ.

One day while the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلمwas giving sermon he suddenly saw phlegm on the wall towards the qiblah (the direction to which Muslims turn in prayer) of the mosque. So he became angry at people. He then scraped it and sent for saffron and stained with it. He then said: When any one of you prays, Allah, the Exalted, faces him: he, therefore, should not spit before him. Abu Dawood said: Ismail and Abdul Warith reported it from Ayyub, from Nafi' - (as did) Malik, Ubidullah, and Musa bin 'Uqbah from Nafi' - similarto that narrated by Hammad, except that they did not mentioned the saffron in it. And Yahya bin Sulaim narrating it from 'Ubaidullah, from Nafi, mentioned Khaluq.
