Amr bin Shuaib reported from his father on the authority of his grand-father: We came down from the mountain pass of Adhaakhir in the company of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . The time of prayer came and he prayed facing a direction of prayer, and we were (standing) behind him. Then a kid came and passed in front of him. He kept on stopping it until he brought his stomach near the wall (to detain it), and at last it passed behind him, or as Musaddad said.

Ibn Umar said: When the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم would go out (for prayer) on the day ofEidd, he ordered to bring a lance, it was then setup in front of him and he would pray in its direction, and the people (stood) behind him. He used to do so during journey ; hence the rulers would take it (lance with them).

Ibn Abbas said: The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم was (once) praying. A kid went passing in front of him and he kept on stopping it.
