حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْمُغِيرَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ هِلَالٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ أَبُو صَالِحٍ:‏‏‏‏ أُحَدِّثُكَ عَمَّا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ وَسَمِعْتُهُ مِنْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏دَخَلَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ عَلَى مَرْوَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى شَيْءٍ يَسْتُرُهُ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَأَرَادَ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَجْتَازَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَلْيَدْفَعْ فِي نَحْرِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنْ أَبَى فَلْيُقَاتِلْهُ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ الشَّيْطَانُ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ:‏‏‏‏ يَمُرُّ الرَّجُلُ يَتَبَخْتَرُ بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ وَأَنَا أُصَلِّي فَأَمْنَعُهُ وَيَمُرُّ الضَّعِيفُ فَلَا أَمْنَعُهُ.

I narrate what I witnesses from Abu Saeed رضی اللہ عنہ and heard from him. Abu Saeed رضی اللہ عنہ entered upon Marwan and said: I heard the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم say: When one of you prays facing any object which conceals him from people, and someone wishes to pass in front of him, he should strike him at his chest; if he refuses (to go), he should fight him; he is only a devil. Abu Dawud said: Sufyan Ath-Thawri said: A person arrogantly walks in front of me while I am praying, so I stop him, and a weak person passes, so I dont stop him.
