It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) through another chain that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said three times: When any one of you passes through the market, a gathering, or a mosque while carrying arrows, he should hold them by their tips. Abu Musa said: Trials kept befalling us until some of us ended up pointing these arrows straight at the faces of others.

Sufyan bin Uyaynah says that I asked Amr bin Dinar, "Did you hear Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) say that a man passed through the mosque with an arrow, so the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: 'Hold them by their tips'?" So Amr said, "Yes! I have heard it."

It is narrated through another chain that Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) was informed by Sayyiduna Bannah Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by some people in the mosque or in a gathering who were handing unsheathed swords to each other. Upon seeing this, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: May Allah curse the one who does this. Did I not forbid you from doing so? When you draw a sword, a person should keep it in its sheath, then hand it over in that manner.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When any of you is in the mosque, Satan makes an excuse with him, just as a man makes an excuse with his animal. When he settles it for him, he bends it down or puts a bridle on it. Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: You see all this; the one who is bent down, you see him bent in such a way that he does not remember Allah, and the one who is bridled, he opens his mouth and thus does not remember Allah.

Sayyiduna Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: When any of you spits or clears his throat in the mosque, he should conceal it, lest it may fall on the body or clothes of a believer and cause him harm.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was praying in the mosque when he saw some phlegm in the direction of the qiblah. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) finished the prayer, he said: When any of you prays in the mosque, he is conversing with his Lord, and Allah, Blessed and Exalted, is before him. Therefore, none of you should spit in the direction of the qiblah or to his right side. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) called for a piece of wood, scraped it off, and then called for some perfume and applied it there.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When any one of you spits in the mosque, he should bury it; if he cannot do so, then he should spit into his garment.

Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw some phlegm in the direction of the qiblah in the mosque and scraped it off with a pebble. Then he forbade a man from spitting in front of himself or to his right side, and said: A person should spit to his left side or beneath his left foot.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) liked to hold date palm twigs in his hand. One day, he had such a twig in his hand when he entered the mosque. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saw some phlegm in the direction of the qiblah in the mosque, so he scraped it off until he cleaned it. Then, turning to the people in a state of anger, he said: "Does any one of you like that a man should come and spit on his face?" (Consider that) when any of you stands for prayer, his Lord is in front of him and an angel is on his right side, (therefore) he should not spit in front of him or to his right, rather he should spit under his left foot or to his left side. If he is in a hurry, then he should do so in this manner." Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) rubbed one part of his garment with another part. And the narrator of the hadith, Yahya, (explaining this example) spat into his garment and rubbed it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Spitting in the mosque is a sin, and its expiation is to bury it.
